The crow is front and centre of a strange landscape. It is perched on a trunk immerged in brackish water where the body of a dead animal is floating. A sharp yellow outline surrounds the crow's black shape. The crow's wings bent inwards and closed beak give it a look of impartibility well suited to the opacity of the water's surface.
