Boy Offering Seeds at a Birdhouse in the Tree

A smiling boy in a patterned cap and a zigzag-trimmed puffy jacket reaches up to a wooden birdhouse on a large tree trunk, holding seeds in his open hand. The birdhouse has a scalloped roof, a small picket fence, a feeding tray with seeds, and a sunflower-shaped round window with a bird peeking out. Another bird sits on top of the roof, and three more perch on bare branches overhead. A ladder leans against the tree with a small basket of seeds hanging from it. In the background you can see a little house with a tiled roof, bare trees, and snowdrop flowers with small patches of snow at the bottom. Try coloring the jacket in a few different patterns, then ask kids to count the birds and find every one. The seed details are great for practicing small, careful strokes with colored pencils. This free printable works well for a nature lesson on feeding birds at winter's end.
