Sepia-toned photograph of two dead birds. The birds are hanging from a rope. They are positioned with their backs to the camera, heads facing right. The larger bird is on the bottom, and a smaller bird is on top of it. The birds have light-colored feathers with darker spots and stripes. Their legs and feet are visible, with the larger bird's legs slightly apart. The background is a wooden wall or fence with vertical planks. The wood grain is visible, and the planks have varying shades of light brown.
