The Stork's Masterful Nest Challenge

Fun Fact

Storks often reuse their nests year after year, adding new material each season until they become massive structures, sometimes weighing hundreds of pounds! They are known for nesting on tall structures like chimneys, trees, and even special platforms built by humans.

Coloring Tips

1. 1🎨 Feathered Focus - Use short, overlapping strokes in shades of white, black, and grey to give the stork's feathers a realistic, fluffy texture and highlight its focused expression.
2. 2🖍️ Weathered Wonders - Combine muted browns, greys, and even a hint of dark green or mossy tones to emphasize the age and texture of the old chimney bricks and roof tiles.
3. 3✨ Intricate Nest Weave - Vary the colors of the branches and twigs in the nest, using different browns, ochres, and even some dried leaf colors to create depth and the illusion of many interwoven materials.
4. 4🌈 The Tricky Branch - Make the unusually long and wobbly branch stand out by using a slightly different shade of brown or green, perhaps with subtle texture lines, to show it's new and not yet fully integrated into the nest.
