This illustration from Harper's Weekly, dating June 13, 1874, shows three boys engaged in a raid on a sand-swallow colony. The scene captures them on a steep, sandy slope near what appears to be grass and a bank, with a variety of birds flying around them. One boy is at the top of the bank looking down, while another is in the process of climbing up, grasping the grassy edge. The third boy is seated on the slope, holding a large stick or tool. The attire of the boys suggests a rural or working-class setting typical of the late 19th century. The title at the bottom reads, "Raid on a Sand-Swallow Colony—'How Many Eggs?'" and credits the artist Winslow Homer.

The image depicts an illustration from "Harper's Weekly" dated June 18, 1874. It is a monochromatic print showing a scene of three individuals engaged in an activity on a sandy cliff. The cliff is inhabited by numerous birds, which are depicted both in flight and perched along the face of the escarpment. The individual at the top of the cliff is reaching down, while the remaining two appear to be sitting or sliding on the incline, potentially observing or involved in the activity at hand. Judging by the presence of the birds and the cliffside setting, it seems like it could be a depiction of a bird or egg-collecting expedition. The title "RAID ON A SAND-SWALLOW COLONY—'HOW MANY EGGS?'" suggests that the individuals might be engaging in collecting eggs from the colony of sand swallows. The artwork is drawn by Winslow Homer, a notable American artist known for his landscape paintings and depictions of American life.

This is a historical illustration from Harper's Weekly dated June 13, 1874, titled "Raid on a Sand-Swallow Colony - 'How Many Eggs?'" drawn by Winslow Homer. The black and white engraving shows three figures on a steep sandy bank or cliff face where sand swallows (a type of bird) have made their nests. Birds can be seen flying around in the background. One figure is precariously reaching up into what appears to be a sand swallow's nest in the bank, while two others are seated on the slope below. Grass and vegetation can be seen growing at the top of the bank, and several bird holes or nests are visible in the sandy surface. The illustration captures what appears to be people collecting bird eggs, a practice that was common in the 19th century but would be considered harmful to wildlife today.
