Artistmagpies atrracted to the brightly colored pieces of patterned cloth and ribbons are weaving nests in the branches of the trees
Two black and white magpies with iridescent blue feathers perch on gnarled brown branches against a light green background. One magpie is in the upper center, looking down towards the lower magpie, which is in the lower center, looking forward. Both magpies have bright blue eyes and are holding colorful, patterned ribbons in their beaks. The branches are covered with small green leaves. Numerous ornate, colorful silk ribbons and fabric swags are draped throughout the scene, twisting around branches and forming hanging basket-like shapes. These fabrics are intricately patterned with floral motifs, paisleys, and abstract designs in shades of blue, gold, red, green, and orange. Some of the fabric sections resemble weaving baskets or nests, one containing a spherical object wrapped in similar patterned fabric, resembling a ball of yarn. The overall composition is dense and richly detailed, evoking a tapestry or illuminated manuscript style.
