Step 2: On the bottom right part add a curved cone: pretend you’re drawing a mango!
Step 3: Erase extra lines and draw a smaller circle inside.
Step 4: Add another smaller “mango” but make it pointier – this will be our bird’s wing!
Step 5: To make the feet, draw two straight lines and then add three smaller lines to each one.

Step 7: Draw the beak by adding two rounded tips.
Step 8: You’re all done! Color it with bright colors and add silly details if you want: holding a flower or a purse, put a hat on it, it’s up to you.
