Rooster Crowing on a Wooden Fence at Sunrise

A tall rooster stands on a wooden fence rail with its beak wide open, crowing. It has a jagged comb on top of its head, a round eye, a wattle under the beak, and long streaky neck feathers that end in a zigzag edge near the chest. The wing is made of layered feathers, and the big curved tail sweeps up and back in several loops. Its legs have scaly lines and its toes grip the rail. Behind it, a small sun peeks over a grassy hill with short rays around it. Try warm oranges, pinks, and yellows for the sunrise sky and give the rooster rich reds and browns. It also works well for a morning routine chat about why roosters crow at dawn. This printable page has big open shapes, so it suits kids who like a bit of detail to fill in.
