Adult Coloring Beautiful Birds Coloring Book (Adult Coloring Books: Animals)

My mom loves this coloring book! The images are really beautiful and she loved how there is a page at the end of the book that tells you the species of all the birds. It has helped a bit with backyard bird identification, thank you!

You will be very happy with this book. Beautiful pictures, and great quality.

The media could not be loaded. Attached is my silent and quick flip through video of the entire book of designs. I hope it is of assistance to you.My husband and I have started using Adult Coloring Books as a way to de-stress. I know that many crafts use the same part of the brain that one uses in meditation, so I wasn't surprised to read that many other adults were turning to coloring. I have bought several different types of books and I find that I like a lot of the ones by Creative Haven/Dover. I have found that my non-alcohol based markers and my gel pens all leak through this brand of book, so I am sure to place paper between the pages to keep the pages behind fresh and clean. I've found that freezer paper works really well for this purpose.The pages of the book are single-sided and are perforated at the bound edge so you can remove the page to color or to frame afterwards. The pages are a bright white and have a decent pound weight - they are not flimsy. What is really nice about this particular book is that, if you chose to color the pages realistically, the author/illustrator has included a color guide for each of the 31 print included in the book. The birds are shown in natural habitat style outdoor settings but you can decide to mix it up and use any color you wish.The illustrations by Dot Barlowe are quite lovely and include the following birds:Painted buntings, Baltimore orioles, Bobwhite quails, Carolina wrens, Eastern bluebirds, Ruby-throated hummingbirds, Roseate spoonbills, Cedar waxwings, Barn swallow, Brown pelicans, Monk parakeets, Northern flicker, Tuamoto sandpiper, Belted kingfisher, a montage of House finch, white throated sparrow, house sparrows, song sparrow, and chipping sparrow, also included are American flamingos, Northern cardinals, Red-tailed hawk, Eastern rosette, Osprey, Snowy Owl, Laysan albatross, Wild turkeys, Ring-necked pheasants, Herring gull, Sharp-tailed grouse, Mute swan, Great blue heron, Purple gallinute, Sanderlings, and Wood duck.The illustrations contain quite a bit of detail, so it is a nice challenge for me. Of the color books I have purchased recently, this one is my husband's favorite as he is quite the bird lover. When it arrived, he went through it and called dibs on the pages he wanted to work (and penciled his initials on the back page. He had already "called" about three quarters of them before I even got to look at the book! That's okay, the price is so reasonable that I can buy another one if we have a dispute about who gets what. It's really nice to have a relatively inexpensive hobby that is so relaxing at the same time.

Bought 3 bird coloring books for the folks at a nursing home and this is the only one I would recommend. The background setting adds to the story and puts the bird in its environment. Nicely done! 👍

I love all kinds of coloring books.

awesome

It is actually going to be used for the patterns to paint birds on fabric for quilts.. The outlines are perfect. They are detailed just enough, yet they are simplified.

Pro:many types of birds with many types of backgroundsPerforated pages so you can share a book with someone else- I get birds, father in law gets flowers, and we give each other half the pagesCon: 1. There are repeat pages from other non-Bird coloring books, like a tropical island themed book I bought. This is ridiculous. If you color for artistic reasons, for fun, to reduce stress, or for medical/therapuetic reasons (helping with focus, brain fog,distraction from pain,hand rehab), nobody wants to spend the money on several books and find they have the same pictures in them. It never occurred to me that if I buy from the same company that the pictures would be the same as in other books they produce.2. Pages are not white, they are off white or recycled paper, they are not thick either so using pens or non-pencil items may be a problem, not good quality like Millie Marotta. It is not the thinnest paper but not what I expected.3. The pictures are the biggest problem-there's a lot of pointless lines that ruin them. Most good books have well defined, black lines with either tiny detail space or big spaces, but the lines are all placed solely for the purpose of outlining or coloring within that space. This book has a lot of haphazard shading or pencil sketch marks that are within the space to be colored. If you have a log, I don't mind a few inner lines for definition but when there's a body of water, full of lines, they are not definition lines, they fill the space and unless you color it really dark, you will see them and it looks bad. You cannot really use them as definition lines because there are so many. It is not meant for coloring.

Great pictures to colour all the birds you know! The best part there is a guide at the back of the book to guide you with what colours to use if you wish. Hours and hours of fun and relaxation

Really a good book . Go for it. Good paper quality.

gefällt mir sehr gut. Schöne Motive. Man kann seiner Phantasie freien Lauf lassen. Günstige Entspannung für viele Stunden sind garantiert

El libro tiene unas ilustraciones realistas de aves que me gustan bastante, su mayor defecto es la calidad de la edición.Tiene 32 paginas de un papel no muy grueso, impresas solo por una de sus caras, las hojas están perforadas para poder separarlas del libroComo en principio utilizo solo lápices de colores ,el grueso del papel no me supone un problema, con lápices acuarelables puede que el papel de problemas, como idea del grueso del papel, el libro tiene un grosor de 5 mmUna de las paginas, en el libro que me llegó tiene una macha de tinta (se puede ver en la quinta foto), otro par de paginas también tienen manchas de tinta por la parte trasera, no he devuelto el libro porque la mancha no afecta al dibujo)Cuando comience a colorearlo, completare esta opinión, valorando como se comporta el papel con los lápices que utilizoComo ya había leído las opiniones de Amazon USA, no me ha "decepcionado el libro", es lo que me esperabaVolveria a comprarloNota: en alguna de las fotos he puesto dos paginas juntas, se nota claramente por la linea divisoria, de esta forma he podio poner todas las ilustraciones (el limite de fotos que se pueden poner en una opinión son 20)

This very beautiful colouring book features a colouring collection beautiful birds from around the world . The pretty pictures are printed on the one side of very good quality paper and the pages are perforated making displaying your finished work easy.
