Tommy Turkey is excited to welcome everyone to the Thanksgiving celebration. He spreads his grand tail feathers and gives a happy wave. Add your favorite colors to help Tommy look festive for the big day!
Tommy Turkey is waving hello with his grand tail feathers spread wide behind him. He looks ready to welcome everyone to a happy Thanksgiving celebration. Each feather gives you a new little space to color, so Tommy can wear a whole parade of autumn shades. Will he have a neat pattern, a rainbow tail, or feathers that match the falling leaves outside?
Start with brown for Tommyβs body and a lighter tan for his face. His beak can be golden yellow, and his wattleβthe soft flap under his beakβcan be red. Use red, orange, yellow, and rusty brown on the large tail feathers. Try repeating the colors in a pattern: red, yellow, orange, then red again. A pale blue sky behind him keeps the feather fan bright.
Turkeys have feathers all over their bodies, and their large tail feathers can spread into a fan shape. A male turkey is called a tom, which makes Tommy a fitting name. Turkeys can run quickly on the ground, and they can fly short distances too. Their gobbling sounds are famous, especially during springtime. Tommyβs friendly wave is a fun cartoon idea, since real turkeys do not wave!
