ArtistThe outskirts of a small village are depicted. A cloudy spring day. The air is quiet, clear and fresh. Light loose clouds float across the grayish sky. The snow has not completely gone down yet, warm steam is coming from the ground. Behind the board fence there are peasant huts, a church and a bell tower with a peeling roof, and even further – arable land with white spots of unfrozen snow. On the outskirts of the village, on a hill - a few gnarled birches. Rooks are flying among their bare branches, fussing and chattering, building new nests, renewing old ones. It is executed in pastel, muted tones. And the brown thawed snow, and the blue smoke smoking over the roof of a peasant hut, and the wet trunks of crooked birches – filled with endless lyricism and poetry.
According to the description of the painting by A. K. Savrasov "Rooks have arrived"
