Cute Owl on a Snowy Branch Under a Winter Crescent Moon

Coloring guide
Perched on a snow-capped branch with its tiny feet gripping the wood, a wide-eyed little owl looks straight out at you. The round face has big shiny eyes, small ear tufts and a little pointed beak. Rows of scalloped feathers fill the chest, and the folded wings are easy to color in sections. A crescent moon hangs in the top corner, and round snowflake dots drift across the night sky. A tree trunk runs up the left edge, with soft mounds of snow on its branches. Large shapes and clear outlines suit preschoolers and early elementary kids. Soft browns and warm tans on the feathers, then white or pale blue snow against a deep navy sky, would look lovely. A calm, free printable for a winter afternoon.
