Cute Owl Looking Through a Telescope Coloring Page

About this page

A winking owl presses one eye to the eyepiece of a short telescope and aims it up and to the right. The scope is mounted on a three-legged tripod with a round pivot, a knob on the side and rubber feet at the bottom. Its wide lens ring faces the sky, where two big outlined stars float near the top of the page, one above the other. The owl has ear tufts, a pointed beak and scalloped feathers across its chest, one wing raised to steady the scope and the other hanging by its side. Its tail feathers stick out at the lower left and its claws grip the ground. Metal parts, big stars and feathers make a good mix of areas. It is a medium page that suits kids who like space, stargazing and science fun.
