The illustration depicts a nest on a rocky outcrop with pink flowers and greenery. The nest contains two small gray birds and a larger pink bird with its beak open, standing over them. A second pink bird stands on the rocks to the right, holding an egg in its beak. A bird with brown and black feathers and a distinctive tail is perched on a rock behind the nest. The background features a body of water and a blue-gray sky. The title "CUCULUS CANORUS" is printed below the image.
