Abstract: The present invention is a decoy system that simulates waterfowl taking off and landing with an actuator that rotates a crossbeam in an oscillating manner. The crossbeam is pivotally connected through a hinge to a support beam and holds waterfowl decoys on opposite sides of the hinge, thereby raising and lowering the decoys in a teetering motion. The crossbeam can be unitary or may be formed by a pair of arm sections that are connected by a bracket. The support beam has a telescoping section that retracts and extends relative to a fixed section and has a set of legs at the base of the support beam. A pair of stops limits the extent to which the crossbeam can rotate relative to the hinge, thereby limiting the range of travel for the distal ends of the arm section.
