A fish and a pigeon are looking eye to eye and appear to be having a conversation.
It's unusual to see these two animals together looking at one another eye to eye because one lives in the sea (fish) and the other on land and can fly (pigeon). It's also strange to have animals talking.
What would these animals have to say to one another?
One of us is about to die.

The fish can't breathe in the air and the birds can't breathe underwater. The joke plays on the ambiguity of the situation because it's not clear whether this scene is taking place under water (the bird will die) or in the air (the fish will die).
