Two birds are depicted standing on a rocky shoreline. The birds have long, slightly curved bills and are surrounded by shells and stones on the rocky surface. One bird is dark gray and facing left, while the other bird is reddish-brown and facing right. The background shows a calm seascape with distant hills or mountains under a light blue sky.
