New coloring page is available

Hi everyone, Zebee here. Have you ever really looked at a King Vulture’s head? There are so many colors I have a hard time remembering them all. Vultures of any type aren’t real pretty birds, but the King Vulture can claim being the most colorful one of the bunch.

Today’s coloring page is just that, a King Vulture’s head. Don’t worry, my boss Joy has included a fully colored head for you to copy. Go to z.p.extras to find it. Have fun and leave me comments with a copy of your finished picture please.

See you Thursday.
