Owl Wearing a Striped Scarf Coloring Page

About this page

Wearing a long striped scarf, an owl stands on a small rounded rock and tilts its head to look out with wide round eyes and a pointed beak. The scarf wraps once around the neck and then hangs down the front at the right, ending in a short fringe, with simple bands across its whole length. The owl has ear tufts that curl out and a chest decorated with curved feather marks, and one wing folds along its left side with a few long tail feathers beneath it. Its claws hold the top of the rock, which has a few angled lines to show its surface. Nothing else crowds the picture. The stripes of the scarf are the main pattern, and the rest is open space. It is an easy page for kids who like winter pictures and want a simple pattern to try.
