FISHING PTERODACTYL #8

🦅 Pterodactyl 🦖 Realistic 🕰️ Jurassic 🦅 Flying 🦅

The pterodactyl is caught mid-flight, wings spread wide, beak open just above a small fish it has just snatched below its chin. Its round eye and open smile give the whole pose a playful energy, as if it had just dived for its catch. Underneath, a squat volcano puffs a cloud of smoke between two rows of palm trees, and the foreground is scattered with rounded boulders, tufts of grass and ferns curled into tight spirals. This printable coloring page mixes big, easy-to-fill shapes — the open wings, the boulders, the palm trunks — with finer areas like the palm fronds, the spiral ferns and the fish's scales. A young child can finish the pterodactyl and volcano in one short sitting, while a more careful colorist will want extra time for the busy foliage below. To keep the picture readable, work the wings and body first before tackling the dense foliage at the bottom, where the smallest details sit. Print this coloring page on heavyweight A4 paper so markers won't bleed through.
