Scarlet Macaw Pair Sitting Together on a Branch Colouring Page

Two scarlet macaws sit close together on one broad rainforest branch. Their bodies face slightly inward, with folded wings touching gently and long tails hanging below the perch. The calm pair and matching curved beaks create a friendly companion scene among a few tropical leaves. How to colour: Give both macaws vivid scarlet heads, chests and backs, golden-yellow middle wing feathers, and royal-blue outer wings and tails. Keep each facial patch white with delicate black lines around a pale eye, colour the upper beaks ivory, lower beaks black and feet medium grey. Use warm brown for the branch and mix emerald, jade and lime green across the leaves. Work on one bird at a time, lay down red lightly before deepening the feather overlaps, blend yellow into blue without covering the black outlines, and add a slim white highlight along each tail.
