The image is of a black-crowned night heron standing on a small puddle of water. The bird is facing towards the right side of the image and its reflection can be seen on the surface of the water. It has a long, pointed beak and a grey body with white and black markings on its wings and legs. Its eyes are red and black, and it appears to be looking off into the distance. The water is still and there are a few twigs and branches visible in the background.
