Two Flamingos Wading Near a Coconut Palm Tree

A tall flamingo stands in shallow water in the front of this scene, its long neck curved into an S shape and its bent beak pointing down. The wing is drawn with a set of curved stripes, and long feathers hang from the tail. A second flamingo stands behind it on one leg, with its other leg tucked up. Behind them, a palm tree leans across the page with jagged leaves and a bunch of round coconuts, and more coconuts sit near the base of the trunk. Simple lines mark the water, the sandy bank and the hills in the background. Try coloring the wing stripes in alternating shades of pink and coral so the feather pattern stands out. Then use greens and browns for the palm. The bold outlines are easy to follow, so it suits kids who are still building pencil control, and it makes a good printable for a nature or birds lesson.
