The painting typically features a variety of domestic and exotic birds, such as chickens, ducks, peacocks, and sometimes more exotic species, all rendered with a high degree of realism. The setting is usually a farmyard or garden, filled with natural elements like foliage, water, and rustic architecture, which provide a rich and engaging backdrop for the avian subjects.

Hondecoeter's ability to convey the individuality and character of each bird is a testament to his keen observation and deep understanding of his subjects.
