    Can you post a better picture? Maybe take a screenshot instead of a picture of your screen. This looks more like a quilt than sheet music. – Edward Mar 01 '21 at 16:18

    Could you try to show an image with higher quality, but also showing at least one whole measure. A title and composer name or other reference could be helpful as well. – user1079505 Mar 01 '21 at 16:19

    If you zoom out, it looks just like a triplet 8th, triplet 8th rest, and another triplet 8th. That might be enough info for OP to find the answer – Edward Mar 01 '21 at 16:21

    @NadiaB providing a *big* and magnified image taken from a screen is *not* really helpful. On the contrary, you'll get the exact opposite. For future reference, learn how to properly get screen captures on your device/computer, or provide a smaller photo - in any case, ensure that what's displayed is *actually* visible and recognizable. – musicamante Mar 01 '21 at 17:06
  • Importantly, what clef does this measure use? Treble? Bass? Alto? Tenor? A percussion clef? – Dekkadeci Mar 02 '21 at 13:23

Not the clearest of pictures! But I think it's this? Here's a whole 4-beat bar's worth of them:

Triplet 8ths, with the middle one replaced by a rest.

'One-and-a, Two-and-a, Three-and-a, Four-and-a' with the 'ands' missing.

    This is it. The blob in between must be the blob part of the quaver rest, which surely must be apparent in a proper size picture.. +1. – Tim Mar 01 '21 at 16:27

This seems pretty much like a triplet of eighths notes, where the middle one is a rest and the outer notes share the beam.

In total the length is equal to that of a quarter note.
