Two pheasants are in the image. One stands on the left with brown, red, and blue plumage, while the other is on the right drinking water. The color palette includes rich, earthy tones and vivid reds seen in the birds and berries on the bush behind them. The male pheasant is on the grassy and slightly rocky area to the left, while the female leans toward the water on the right. A tree with red berries sits between them.
