What's In This Picture
In the center of the page, a cheerful hummingbird is caught in mid-flight with its long beak extended toward a bloom. The bird has soft feathers and large, bright eyes that give it a friendly personality. It is surrounded by a vine of trumpet flowers, which are long and bell-shaped, perfect for a hungry bird.
Look closely and you will find detailed leaves and winding stems that connect the flowers together. There are even tiny water droplets resting on the petals and leaves, suggesting a fresh morning dew or a light summer rain. Every element, from the bird's tiny feet to the delicate veins in the leaves, invites you to add your own splash of color to this natural garden scene.
Coloring Tips
Hummingbirds are famous for their shimmering, iridescent feathers. You can recreate this effect by using metallic markers or by blending shades of emerald green, deep blue, and bright red on the bird's body. For the trumpet flowers, consider using vibrant oranges, yellows, or pinks to make them stand out against the greenery.
Since the lines are of moderate density, you have plenty of space to experiment with shading. Try using a lighter touch with your colored pencils to create a soft glow on the water droplets, leaving a tiny bit of white to show where the light hits them. The cartoon style makes it fun to use bold, solid colors, but adding a little bit of gradient to the long flower petals can really bring the whole garden to life.
Did You Know?
Did you know that hummingbirds are the only birds that can fly backward? They can also hover in one spot by flapping their wings up to 80 times per second. Their long, thin beaks are perfectly shaped to reach deep inside trumpet flowers to drink sweet nectar, which gives them the energy they need to fly so fast.
Try This!
After you finish coloring, try to spot a real hummingbird in a local park or your own backyard. You can also draw more water droplets or a bright sun in the background to expand the scene. If you like, try writing a short story about where this little bird is flying next on its garden adventure.
