Rooster Crowing From a Fence Post Over Hens and Chicks

A big rooster stands on top of a wooden fence post with his head tipped back and beak open mid crow. His long tail feathers sweep out behind him. Around the yard below, four hens peck at the ground, and several tiny chicks scatter between them. A duck with a small duckling walks along a dirt path in the middle of the page. In the background, two cows graze near a wooden fence, with a barn and a silo on the hill and a few trees behind them. The rooster's tail has lots of separate feathers, so it works well for practicing layered colors, like reds, oranges and browns blending from one feather to the next. This free page also gives kids a chance to count the chicks and compare the hens, the duck and the cows. Crayons or colored pencils both work nicely for the smaller shapes.
