Half eagle and half lion, this noble griffin sits upright on a rock with its feathered wings raised, a sharp curved beak, alert eyes, and a tufted tail curled at its feet. The mix of two animals makes it a wonderfully rich page to color: feathers cover the head, wings, and front, while smooth lion fur covers the body, hind legs, and tail. Younger colorers can fill the big raised wings and body, and older kids can layer the rows of feathers and the lion's fur for texture. The griffin comes from very old myths where it was seen as a powerful guardian of treasure, combining the king of birds with the king of beasts. Talk about which two animals you can spot in it. Try golden-brown feathers fading into tawny lion fur for a classic look. Print it on US Letter or A4 and let your griffin stand guard.

Coloring Tips

Feathers meet fur — shade the feathered front and wings one way and the lion fur another so the two halves of the griffin are easy to see.
Golden eagle tones — warm golds and browns on the head and wings give the eagle part a noble, sunlit look.
Texture the tail — short strokes on the lion body and a soft tuft on the tail make the fur look real.
