Ostrich

Little Explorer Ages 4 to 6 · Bold simple detail Level 2/5

Tested by kids aged 4 to 6

A tall ostrich stands with its characteristic long neck stretched upward and distinctive feathered body. The bird's powerful legs and curved posture are clearly defined, with detailed line work showing the texture of its plumage across the wings and back. This simple yet recognizable composition captures the unique silhouette of this flightless zoo favorite.

Coloring tip

Use warm browns and tans for the feathered body and wings, then color the long neck and legs in a lighter peachy tone. The eye and beak work well in black or dark gray to make the head stand out against the body.
