Parrot Pair on a Branch Coloring Page

About this page

Two small parrots sit on one thick branch, turned toward each other as if chatting. Each has a short head tuft, a round eye, a small hooked beak and a folded wing made of two or three scalloped feathers. Their feet wrap around the branch, which stretches across the middle of the page with chunky cut ends. Long tail feathers hang below the branch, three on each bird. The two are nearly mirror images, one on the left and one on the right, with a little gap between their beaks. The symmetry makes this an easy picture to plan colors for: match them, or give each a personality of its own. A cheerful easy page for kids, especially for a two-person coloring session.
