Coloring the nest in different browns and tans helps practice blending and texture, while choosing vibrant colors for the bird encourages creative choices and storytelling.

Pair the sheet with a short picture book about birds to extend learning, or ask children to write a sentence about where the bird might fly next.

This free printable Bird In Nest coloring page makes learning about birds visual and hands on, and it is simple to use in many playful learning moments.

Coloring Tips & Techniques

Try soft brown and tan for the nest, and weave strokes to show texture. Use bright yellow or blue for the bird to make it stand out, and add light green for leaves and soft gray for branch shading. Use short strokes to follow the nest direction for more realistic texture, and press lighter for feather details and darker for edges to add depth.
