The image is a photograph of a bird, specifically a grebe, swimming in a body 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 black body with a red crest on its head and neck, and a long, pointed beak. Its wings are slightly spread out and its legs are slightly bent at the knees. The water is calm and still, and the background is blurred, making the bird the focal point of the photograph.
