The image depicts a winter urban scene in Saint Petersburg, Russia. Approximately eight rock pigeons (Columba livia domestica) are perched in a linear arrangement on a dark, horizontal metal fence bar in the foreground. The pigeons display typical grey plumage with iridescent green and purple neck feathers; the foremost pigeon is largely dark grey with pronounced iridescence. One pigeon towards the middle of the line has its left wing extended upwards, revealing its white underside. The ground immediately surrounding the fence and extending into the midground is uniformly covered in undisturbed white snow. Beyond this snowy expanse, a dark, cleared asphalt road or pathway runs horizontally across the frame. Further back, a second, lighter-colored metal fence is visible parallel to the road. In the distant midground, a lone pedestrian, dressed in light attire and carrying a green object, walks from left to right along a snow-dusted path. The background consists of numerous bare deciduous trees and multi-story residential buildings, consistent with an urban environment under winter conditions. The lighting is diffuse, indicative of an overcast day.
