Toucan Close-Up
A close-up of a toucan's head with an enormous curved beak filling most of the picture and a big friendly eye — a bold, simple-shape bird coloring page.
This close-up portrait fills the page with a toucan's head and shoulders, where an enormous oversized curved beak takes up most of the picture, a large round friendly eye looks out, smooth head feathers frame the face, and a single jungle leaf sits behind it. Because the shapes are so big and bold — especially that giant beak — it's a wonderfully easy page that still looks striking when finished. Toucans really do have huge, colorful beaks, but they are surprisingly light because they are mostly hollow, and the bird uses it to reach fruit and to stay cool. The simple, large areas make it great for younger colorers, while the option to make the beak a multicolored rainbow keeps older kids busy. Color the body black, the chest white or yellow, and the beak as bright as you like. Print it on US Letter or A4.
Coloring Tips
- Rainbow the beak — real toucan beaks blend several colors, so try orange into yellow into green for a striking look.
- Big black body — fill the head and shoulders solid black to make that colorful beak pop even more.
- Green leaf backdrop — color the jungle leaf a deep green so the toucan feels right at home in the rainforest.
