Curly Mustache Pirate Admiring the Parrot on His Arm

A cartoon pirate with a big curly mustache looks down at a parrot perched on his forearm. He wears a tall tricorn hat, a striped bandana underneath, a hoop earring, and a loose shirt with a knotted neckerchief at the chest. His sleeves have little round buttons on the cuffs. The parrot turns its head toward him, with feathered wings drawn in short curved lines and a long tail hanging down on the left. The pirate's other hand rests open in front of him. The outlines are bold and the shapes are large, so this free printable works well for younger kids with crayons or chunky markers. Try giving the parrot a rainbow of colors, then talk about which real birds have bright feathers like that. The stripes on the bandana are also fun for practicing pattern coloring.
