St. Joseph Museums

The image depicts a lifeless bird mounted on a wooden stand, positioned against a dark background. The bird's body is oriented horizontally, secured to the stand with a combination of twine and tape. The wooden base of the stand consists of two vertical supports and a square base, which stabilize the structure. The bird, with its greenish-yellow plumage, appears to be a specimen prepared for display or educational purposes. There is a small tag attached to the bird, likely containing identification information. The setup is simple and utilitarian, with an emphasis on showcasing the bird's form.
