The image shows a bird standing on top of a wooden post in the middle of a body of water. The bird appears to be a cormorant, with a long neck and a pointed beak. It is facing towards the right side of the image, with its wings slightly spread out and its tail feathers fanned out. The water is calm and still, with small ripples visible on the surface. The sky is overcast and the overall mood of the photo is peaceful and serene.
