ABSTRACT:
A weather vane-type rotatable inflatable wild fowl decoy. The decoy includes a relatively rigid or semi-flexible head and neck portion adapted to be rotatably supported by a spindle stuck in the earth, and an inflatable bag body adapted to be secured to the head and neck portion for rotation therewith. The decoy may be set up in the field in standing or sentry position and also in bent-over feeding or landing position. The body is imprinted with a non-reflective, mattefinish pattern simulating a species of wild fowl desired to be lured by the decoy. Specific means for mounting the decoy head on a spindle are disclosed, along with specific fastening means for securing the body. Preferably the spindle has some springiness or slight flexibility.
