Blue-Footed Booby Coloring Sheet

Meet this lively Blue-footed Booby, a remarkable seabird famous for its bright webbed feet and funny high-stepping courtship dance. These ocean birds live around tropical Pacific islands, including the Galapagos, and they can dive swiftly into the sea to catch fish. Children can make the large webbed feet brilliant turquoise, sky blue or deep cobalt, then colour the long pointed bill pale blue-grey. Use chocolate brown, charcoal or soft grey on the wings and tail, creamy white on the chest and belly, and light tan around the head and neck. Colour the ocean in several blues, add white foam to the waves, make the rocks sandy brown or cool grey, and give the jumping fish shiny silver scales. Keep the eye sparkle white, follow the feather shapes with gentle strokes, and add a warm sun or distant island if you want to finish this cheerful Galapagos adventure.
