A brindle-patterned cow, primarily light brown and cream with darker, irregular vertical stripes, stands in profile facing left on a patch of sparse green and dry grass in Nkomo ward, Kenya. The bovine exhibits short horns and has a thin, light-colored rope tethered around its neck, extending to the ground on its left side. In the midground, a two-lane paved road runs diagonally across the frame, positioned on a slight incline above the cow. A metal guardrail borders the road. Traffic includes a dark-colored pickup truck with a green canopy moving left in the nearest lane, and a lighter-colored SUV or pickup truck moving right in the far lane. A third dark vehicle is partially visible on the far left of the road. The road is flanked by reddish-brown earth embankments. The background features dense green vegetation, including numerous trees and bushes. Above the vegetation, a multi-story building with a grey, possibly concrete, facade and visible balconies is present, appearing to be under construction or recently completed. To the right of this building, a large green container is discernible. Utility poles are interspersed within the foliage. The scene is illuminated by natural daylight, casting shadows.
