This is a diorama display of taxidermied animals and insects in a glass case. The diorama depicts a naturalistic habitat, likely a forest or woodland setting. In the foreground, a taxidermied hare is positioned on the left side, facing right. To its right, a small, light-colored mammal, possibly a weasel or stoat, is perched on a log, facing left. In front of the weasel are two small white butterflies. To the right of the weasel and slightly behind it, a larger bird with brown and black speckled plumage stands facing right. Above these ground-dwelling animals, a tree with pine needles serves as a perch for several birds and insects. On the upper left, a small bird with brown plumage is perched on a branch. Below it, a green bird with yellow markings is perched on a lower branch. To the right of this green bird, a blue and violet bird is captured in mid-flight, its wings spread wide. Near the blue and violet bird, a small bird's nest is visible on a branch. Further to the right, a dark butterfly with orange markings is affixed to the background or a branch. A small yellow butterfly is also visible on a nest. Another small grey bird is perched on a branch on the far left. The background of the diorama is a plain, light-colored wall. The display is housed within a wooden-framed glass case. A small printed label with Russian text is visible on the base of the diorama to the right of the large speckled bird. The text visible in the upper right portion of the image appears to be a list or identification of the displayed species, also in Russian. The prominent Russian text is likely related to the museum's collection. This diorama is located in the Hrodna State Museum of History and Religion, Hrodna, Belarus, within the Zoological exposition section.
