Blackbird
Summary
A pair of adult blackbirds perch on the same branch. The one in the foreground is looking to the left. Its yellow beak and bright black eye stand out. The other one is looking to the right and its feathers are coloured in diverse shades of brown. Leaves and twigs can be seen behind them. This print has been mounted on a board. There is a fragment of informative text stuck to it on the bottom left corner of the work. It contains the name of the birds in diverse languages and the first line of what seems to be a description.
