The feather like sheen of our wood decoys is beautiful in the hand and deadly realistic on the water. Carefully set glass eyes finish the deception. Since they are handcrafted from wood, no two Autumn Wings Wooden Duck Decoys are exactly alike.

They look for secluded back waters and prefer wooded covers such as river bottoms and small ponds. Found all across North America but most numerous in the Mississippi and Atlantic flyways.
