Tall-Tailed Turkey Stretching Its Bumpy Neck Up High

Tall-Tailed Turkey Stretching Its Bumpy Neck Up High coloring page

Coloring guide

A single turkey stands in profile, turned slightly toward the viewer, with its long bumpy neck stretched upward and its head tilted. It has a round eye, a curved beak, and small dots and bumps across the face and neck. The body is covered in rows of overlapping scallop-shaped feathers, and a larger rounded wing sits on its side with longer feathers fanning out toward the back. Behind it, a tail of tall, pointed leaf-like feathers rises in layers. Two thin legs end in long toes with sharp claws. Kids could color the scallops in alternating browns, golds, and oranges, then try a different shade for each row to see the pattern. This free printable works well for a Thanksgiving table activity or a classroom lesson on bird features.
