Two ducks are swimming in a body of water, possibly a pond or a slow-moving stream. The water is a murky brown color and reflects the surroundings. One of the ducks dives headfirst into the water, its rear end sticking up in the air for a moment before disappearing. The other duck remains on the surface. The banks of the water are lined with tall, dry reeds or grasses. The scene is shot in natural light.
