Three mallard ducks are swimming in murky brown water. The ducks are positioned in a triangular formation. One duck is in the foreground, facing the camera. Two other ducks are further back and to the left and right. The water is calm and appears to be shallow near the bottom of the frame. In the background, a dark blue body of water reflects the sky. A wooden structure, possibly a dock, is visible along the top edge of the frame, with a white railing or ladder. The lighting suggests it is daytime, with sunlight casting shadows.
