Bird Coloring Pages
We've searched high and low for free bird
coloring pages. Some we found were free, but were not very realistic
or good for coloring. So we've gathered all the good ones (at least
by our standards) all in one place.
We've categorized the coloring pages by bird orders:
Cornell has an excellent bird
coloring book that includes 48 species of common feeder birds. It is
a student
workbook that includes questions on each bird coloring page. Most of
the bird pictures in the coloring book were drawn by the noted bird
artist and ornithologist, Louis Agassiz Fuertes (1872-1927).
Fuertes, a native of Ithaca, New York and a Cornell University
graduate, is known for his realistic bird art. The other drawings
are by William Montagna.
*Note: If you
cannot download the book, you may need Adobe Acrobat Reader set up
on your computer. To obtain a free copy, visit the Adobe web site at
