The artwork features a serene stream surrounded by lush vegetation, where various species of ducks and other birds are depicted in their natural habitat. The landscape is rendered in an Italianate style, characterized by its idealized and harmonious portrayal of nature, which was influenced by the works of Italian landscape painters of the time.

Barlow's attention to detail is evident in the meticulous rendering of the birds' plumage and the dynamic poses that convey a sense of movement and liveliness. The composition is balanced, with the stream serving as a central element that guides the viewer's eye through the scene, while the surrounding flora and fauna create a rich tapestry of textures and colors. This painting not only showcases Barlow's technical skill but also reflects his deep appreciation for the natural world, a theme that recurs throughout his body of work.
