Cartoon Bird Coloring Pages
Welcome to my cartoon bird coloring pages section.
Birds are the only animals alive today with feathers, and they're actually the closest living relatives of the dinosaurs! They come in every size, from a hummingbird small enough to sit on your fingertip to an ostrich taller than a grown-up. Some sing, some swim and a few can't fly at all!

- A bird's feathers can weigh more than its bones! A bald eagle has about 7,000 feathers, and together they weigh around twice as much as its whole skeleton.
- There are more than 10,000 kinds of birds, and they live just about everywhere. Emperor penguins even raise their chicks on the Antarctic ice in the middle of winter, with the dads keeping the eggs warm on their feet.
- The Arctic tern has the longest migration of any animal. Scientists put tiny trackers on some and found they fly about 70,000 km (44,000 miles) a year, zigzagging with the winds between the Arctic and Antarctica. Over its life, one tern can fly as far as the moon and back three times!
- Most birds have hollow bones with air spaces inside, linked to the way they breathe. Not all of them, though. Penguins and loons have heavier, solid bones, which helps them dive instead of bobbing back up like a cork.
- Many birds, pigeons included, can see ultraviolet light, which is invisible to us. Some feathers and berries that look plain to people have bright patterns a bird can spot right away.
