About this cardinal coloring page

The red cardinal is America’s Christmas bird, and this one is mid-flap, with a tall pointed crest, a mask around its beak and a bright eye. Its wings are lifted high with layers of feathers, and a long fanned tail sweeps out behind. The lines on its chest are a good place to try more than one color.

This page has 70 shapes to fill, with some fine detail. Cardinals are known for their red feathers, but your bird can be any color: a blue one with a gold mask, or a pink one. Try a second color for the wings and the tail. It can wear 3 things, colored like the rest: bow, holly sprig and scarf.

Alive, it perches high up in the village and flies from one perch to the next. When you’re done, set it free in Christmas Village, alongside the many drawings other people have colored.
