Coloring Tips

1. 1🎨 **Feathered Friend** - Use soft browns, grays, and whites for the baby roadrunner's fluffy feathers. Add very light touches of peach or pink to its beak and feet for a tender look.
2. 2🖍️ **Saguaro's Texture** - The saguaro cactus has deep ridges and a waxy texture. Use varying shades of green, from light lime to deep forest green, to create depth and show its unique form. Don't forget subtle shadows!
3. 3✨ **Tiny Blooms** - The desert wildflowers can be any bright, cheerful colors! Think purples, yellows, reds, and oranges. Use a fine-tipped pencil to add delicate details to their petals and stems.
4. 4🌈 **Desert Backdrop** - Imagine the warm desert sun! Use light yellows, oranges, and even soft blues for the sky and distant hills to make the roadrunner and cactus stand out.
