A high-angle, close-up photograph depicts the upper body and head of a rooster on dry, reddish-brown granular soil in Idah, Nigeria. The rooster, positioned diagonally from the lower-left to the upper-right, exhibits reddish-brown and dark, iridescent plumage on its neck and back. Its prominent red, serrated comb is visible, with a portion of a red wattle also present. The rooster's head is oriented towards the upper-right. The ground surface is characterized by its reddish-brown color, a granular texture, and scattered small white and dark pebbles, along with sparse fragments of dried plant matter. A single green plant sprout with two leaves is visible in the lower-right quadrant. No human subjects or specific actions beyond the rooster's presence are observed in the scene, which appears to be under natural daylight.
