Griffon #3096

The image captures a vulture perched within a wire enclosure, its head turned slightly to the side. Its plumage is a mix of soft white down on the neck and shoulders, transitioning into mottled brown feathers on its wings. The beak is hooked and pale, contrasting with the dark, alert eye. Behind it, a dense canopy of green leaves filters the light, casting dappled shadows across the scene. The metal grid of the cage forms a repeating pattern, intersecting with the natural backdrop. The lighting is subdued, suggesting late afternoon or filtered daylight. The atmosphere is quiet, with the bird appearing still and observant, its gaze fixed beyond the confines of its surroundings. The textures of feathers, metal, and foliage create a layered, grounded composition.
