The image depicts two Savannah Finches perched on branches. The birds have mixed plumage of browns and white, blending with the branches and dried grasses. Red and pink flowers, green leaves, and blades of grass are present in the scene. The branches crisscross diagonally, framing the finches and the foliage.
