Coloring page Parrot with Hat on Telescope

A cheerful parrot sits atop a long telescope mounted on a tripod. It wears a large, wavy hat with a bow, with feathers peeking out from under the brim. The bird has a distinct eye, a curved beak, and a wing with several large feathers. In the background, clouds float by, and below, waves and a shoreline are depicted.

This picture is perfect for a quiet afternoon at home when a child wants to sit at the table with someone close and choose colors. The coloring page helps develop attention to detail, as it’s easy to compare the shapes of feathers, clouds, and telescope parts. This printable features bold outlines that guide the crayon along the curves of the hat and the outline of the tripod. The parrot and telescope theme organizes the work, starting with the bird and moving to the background and water. The bow on the hat is a simple decorative touch that often helps highlight the outfit and draw the eye. Red and navy blue suit the bow well, as these colors nicely accentuate its symmetrical loops and contrast with the hat’s wide brim. It’s most convenient to fill in the areas with crayons and use a pencil tip to add subtle shadows along the outlines.

Color the parrot and telescope, then show off your masterpiece.
