The image depicts a snow-covered urban landscape in Ust-Ilimsk, Russia, under an overcast sky. The foreground is dominated by a thick layer of fresh, undisturbed snow, which also heavily coats the bare branches of a large tree framing the left side of the scene. In the midground, a low, irregularly shaped concrete structure, resembling a disused fountain or planter, is partially covered by snow. A flock of approximately 15 to 20 dark-plumaged pigeons is gathered on and around this concrete structure, some appearing huddled together. One pigeon stands separately on the snow-covered ground to the left of the main group. The background reveals an orange-brown brick apartment building, with several pigeons perched on its upper ledge. Behind this, numerous snow-dusted deciduous trees with bare branches and tall evergreen trees are visible, interspersed with another multi-story residential building in the far background. A dark metal fence is partially discernible in the midground. The overall environment indicates a cold, static winter day.
