The image is a photograph of a small bird perched on a thin branch. The bird is a pine siskin, also known as a pine finch, and it is facing towards the right side of the image. It has a white body with black and yellow stripes on its wings and tail. Its head is slightly tilted downwards and its beak is slightly open, as if it is about to take flight. The branch it is perched on is brown and appears to be bare, with no leaves or other vegetation visible in the background.
