This image captures an outdoor animal enclosure in the city of Irkutsk, Russia, under bright daylight conditions. The scene is dominated by avian subjects and man-made structural elements. In the immediate foreground, a ground surface is visible, primarily covered with dry, golden-brown straw, particularly on the left. A dark brown wooden post, approximately 10-15 cm in diameter, extends diagonally from the lower-left corner upwards. A single, light-colored feather, approximately 15 cm long, rests on the straw to the left of the image center. In the lower-right quadrant, a single Ruddy Shelduck (Tadorna ferruginea) stands on the straw, oriented slightly to its left. This duck exhibits reddish-brown body plumage, a lighter, almost white face with distinct white patches around its dark eyes, and a dark grey beak. Its webbed feet are visible. The midground features a prominent, dark brown horizontal wooden beam, approximately 15 cm in diameter, extending across the lower-middle section of the image, partially obscuring the lower part of a concrete structure. Behind and above this beam, a multi-tiered, light grey concrete structure, possibly a raised platform or pool surround, hosts three large pelicans. The pelican on the far left stands with its back partly towards the viewer, displaying ruffled light grey and white wing feathers. Its head is turned towards the right. The central pelican is actively preening, with its head lowered and its long, grey beak inserted into its chest feathers; its crown feathers appear ruffled and spiky. A third pelican is partially visible on the right side of the concrete structure, showing its ruffled head and neck. All pelicans exhibit grey and white plumage and stand on visible, dark, webbed feet. Several dark brown wooden logs and branches are arranged on and around the concrete structure, some serving as perches. To the right of the concrete structure, a shallow, dark body of water with a somewhat reflective surface is present. Several light grey and white rocks of varying sizes are scattered along the water's edge and on the damp ground. The background consists of a tall, solid green metal wall on the left, across which a distinct, dark diagonal shadow is cast from an unseen overhead structure. Adjacent to the green wall, towards the center and right, is a section of tall yellow metal mesh fencing, characterized by numerous vertical and horizontal bars forming a grid pattern. Behind this yellow fencing, a darker, indistinct structure, possibly
