Color choices

Great horned owl: begin with warm brown and tan shades across the body, wings and fanned tail. Use cream on the facial feathers and chest, then deepen the feather markings with dark brown or charcoal. Try golden amber for the eyes, gray for the beak and talons, and a contrasting reddish brown for the stump and wood grain.

Feather Shade Pattern

Alternate light and dark shades across the layered wing and tail feathers. Repeat selected shades in the chest markings to tie the plumage together.

Before you print

Great Horned Owl Landing Coloring Page has about 103 separate areas to color, a medium level of detail. Crayons work for the larger shapes, and colored pencils or fine markers help in the smaller spaces.

The PDF fills one US Letter page. On A4 paper, choose “Fit to page” so the frame stays inside the margins, and print one test copy before making a class set.
