A vertically oriented pencil drawing depicts a bird in flight, its angular wings spread wide while fanned tail feathers extend toward the upper right. The bird's pointed beak clutches a rectangular bag inscribed with the word OHIO in block letters. Composed of sketchy, overlapping gray lines on off-white paper, the drawing emphasizes the creature's downward motion as it dives toward the lower left, framed within a vertical layout.
