Standing Hen With Zigzag Wing Feathers

A single hen stands in profile facing right, with her head tilted slightly forward and her beak open just a little. She has a spiky comb on top of her head, a round wattle under the beak, and a small round eye with a dot in the center. Jagged feather lines run down her neck and chest. The wing is the busiest part of the page, with bold zigzag stripes and layered feathers along the edge. Her tail fans out at the left in long, rounded feathers, and she balances on two thin legs with long, pointed toes. There is no background, so kids can add their own. Try coloring the zigzag wing in two or three contrasting shades, then talk about how real hens have different feather patterns. This printable works well for crayons or colored pencils.
