Hada Montando Sobre Tortuga Joven De Galápagos página para colorear

 Aquí encontrará más de 3000 páginas para colorear gratuitas para imprimir.


Estos dibujos los hice yo, Robin Lyman.

Soy una maestra jubilada que enseñó tanto en la Escuela Primaria como en la secundaria.

y también Ciencia en Secundaria.

El nuevo dibujo de hoy es de un Hada dando un paseo en una tortuga de Galápagos.







Fairy Riding on Galapagos Tortoise

Hada Montando Sobre Tortuga Joven De Galápagos

En primer lugar, se trata de una tortuga joven o juvenil de Galápagos. Es un comedor de cactus. Un hada local va a montar a esta cría, pero no es una tortuga recién nacida. Hay varias especies de tortugas de Galápagos. Algunos tienen un cuello particularmente largo que evolucionó para que se estiraran mucho para alcanzar la comida. Este es uno de esos.

Esta Hada, llamada Adelia, también es un Hada Mariposa. Puede ver que las alas de Hada y mariposa son similar.
El Hada es, por supuesto, un Hada de Galápagos. Le encantan las tortugas. Ella tiene una vida increíblemente larga, por lo que este Hada vivirá para ver envejecer a esta tortuga. Las tortugas de Galápagos pueden vivir hasta 120 años. Dado que las Islas Galápagos son parte de Ecuador, esta Hada domina el idioma principal de las Hadas, el latín, pero también domina el español. Entonces, también publicaré esto en español. NOTA: Este dibujo se encuentra en forma imprimible haciendo clic en el botón etiquetado como "Fantasy, Myths, and Circus" (Fantasía, Mitos y Circo) y luego desplácese hacia abajo hasta el final de la lista. ¡Diviértete coloreando!

Fairy Riding on Young Galapagos Tortoise coloring page

 Here you will find over 3000 free-to-print coloring pages.

These drawings were done by me, Robin Lyman. 

I am a retired teacher who taught both Elementary School 

and also Science in Junior High.

Today's new drawing is of a Fairy taking a ride on a Galapagos Tortoise.



Fairy Riding On Young Galapagos Tortoise

First of all, this is a young or juvenile Galapagos Tortoise.  It is a cactus eater.  A local Fairy is going on a ride on this baby, but not quite a newly hatched tortoise. 

There are several species of Galapagos tortoises.  Some have a particularly long neck that evolved for them to stretch high to reach food.  This is one of those.  

This Fairy, named Adelia, is also a Butterfly Fairy.  The wings are similar on the Fairy and the butterfly.

The Fairy is, of course, a Galapagos Fairy.  She loves tortoises.  She has an incredibly long lifespan, so this Fairy will live to see this tortoise grow old.  Galapagos tortoises can live to up to 120 years.  Since the Galapagos Islands are part of Ecuador, this Fairy is fluent in the main Fairy language of Latin, but she is also fluent in Spanish.  So, I will be posting this in Spanish as well.

Majungasaurus the Unicorn Theropod

 

This is my free coloring pages blog. 

This site has over 3000 coloring page drawings that I have drawn and posted for you to print and color.

Today's new drawing is of a medium-sized Theropod called Majungasaurus.



Majungasaurus the Unicorn Theropod

Majungasaurus could be called a Unicorn Theropod Dinosaur because it was a Theropod or carnivorous dinosaur.  AND it DID have a horn on its snout.  It weighed around 2200 lbs or 1000 kg. It was 23 feet or 7 meters long.  It had a short snout and was a resident of Madagascar.  It lived from 70 million years ago to around 66 MYA and so it lived to see the end of the dinosaur age.  (It died off because of the meteorite that hit what is now Yucatan, Mexico.  

The horn is thought to have been for sexual display, not fighting.  The short snout is indicative of Albisaurids like Majungasaurus.  Majungasaurus was more closely related to Albisaurids from India rather than those found in South America.  Albisaurids are Theropods from the Southern Hemisphere. 

The Majungasaurus is known to be a cannibal.  It also fed on larger than itself Sauropods like Rapetosaurus.  Rapetosaurus was a long-necked Titanosaur Sauropod, but it did not get as big as its cousins like Argentinosaurus or Patagotitan.  This is probably because of some dwarfism due to island habitats having fewer resources than mainland environments.  In fact, other Albisaurids from South America, like Mapusaurus, were up to 40 feet or over 12 meters long and up to almost 7 tons or around 6 metric tonnes in weight.  So, if Majungasaurus had lived on the mainland, it may have been much larger.

Garredorn and Emillian Marry coloring page

 Today we are celebrating a family wedding of two beautiful people.

So today's new drawing is of that couple.


Garredorn and Emillian Marry


Garredorn is a native of Gondor; however, he became a Dunedain Ranger.  He has some Elven ancestors as well, so he is very friendly with the Elves.  This is how he met Emillian.  She is an Elven Princess from the Woods of Lorien.  They fell in love and very recently got married.  

This is a wedding portrait, so the background is limited. But feel free to draw some in if you choose.  Notice the Elven symbols on Garredorn's breastplate.  These letters stand for Garrendorn and Emillian.

NOTE:  To print this coloring page, just go to the Fantasy, Myths, and Circus button.  Then scroll down to the bottom of the list to see this new drawing.  Have fun coloring this lovely young couple.

The Greek God Apollo

 This is my free coloring pages blog.

For regulars, sorry it's been a few days since I posted.  I had surgery.

Thanks for your prayers!  I am not great, but doing OK, more or less.

Today, I am posting a non-traditional drawing of the Greek God Apollo.

This drawing was inspired by one of my kind and skilled caregivers at the hospital.



Apollo with Sword and Shield

Apollo is the name of a High Greek God.  He was or is considered the God of several things, including Archery. He is often depicted with a bow.  But he is sometimes depicted with a sword called the Apollian Blade.  Apollo is also considered the God of the Sun, God of Poetry, God of Healing, God of Art, God of Prophecy.  He is also the God of Music and is frequently depicted with a harp. Because this is a kind of portrait, I limited the backgroud in the drawing.

NOTE:  This drawing is found by clicking on the button labeled "Fantasy, Myths, and Circus." Then, if you are accessing this in late June or during July 2025, this drawing will be at or near the bottom of the list of titles.  Have fun coloring Apollo!

Jesus praying in Gethsemane coloring page

 This is the last drawing I will post for a while.

I have surgery on Tuesday, and I leave for the big city tomorrow.

This drawing is of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

Please keep me and my wife, Laurel, in your prayers.


Jesus is our big brother.  He was there with us in our premortal life with our Heavenly Parents. We voted with Him for Heavenly Father's plan.  We come to Earth to receive a mortal body.  To be more precise, Jesus is our spirit brother.  He volunteered to be our Savior.  So he, eventually, in his time on Earth, paid the eternal price for our sins so that, on conditions of repentance, we can one day return to live with our family and our Heavenly Parents.  Jesus suffered in both Gethsemane and on the cross and paid that tremendous eternal price so that, on conditions of repentance, we can live in eternal glory.

Jesus praying in the Garden of Gethsemane under an Olive Tree

Notice the olive press in the background on the left.  In this drawing, Jesus is just starting to pray. 


NOTE:  This drawing is found in printable form by clicking on the "Religious" button.  Then scroll down to the bottom or near the bottom of the New Testament section and click on this title. Enjoy coloring what I consider a drawing of a very, very sacred moment in history - the beginning of Jesus paying the enternal price for our sins so that repentance will be possible for us.

3 Fairy Drawings- Tiger Swallow-tail Fairy, Firefly Fairy, Cliff Fairies coloring pages

This is my free coloring pages blog.

You will find over 3000 drawings that I drew for you to print and color.

Today, since I have surgery coming up, I am catching up.

So, I will be posting seven drawings today.


The first three drawings are of Fairies.

The next three in the upcoming post are of Jesus.  

I leave home to go to the big city for my throat surgery tomorrow.

So, if you are the praying type, like we are, please pray for me. 



Tiger Swallowtail Fairy Praying

Did you know that Fairies are very religious?  In fact, the missions of Pladius and Saint Patrick went to Ireland in 430 and 431 A. D. and introduced Christianity to the Irish Fairies. Next, Christianity spread to the British Isles.  Then, subsequently in 700 A.D., Christianity came to many more populations of Fairies.  Actually, there are several names for a group of Fairies:  a Glitter of Fairies, a Twinkle of Fairies, a Glint of Fairies, a Sparkle of Fairies, a Court of Fairies, and a Tizzy of Fairies.  So, picturing this beautiful Swallowtail Butterfly Fairy praying is quite accurate.  



Firefly Fairy above the Grass

Firefly Fairies are a type of Night Fairy.  They can communicate with fireflies by using the magic light charm at the end of their wand.  Of course, Firefly Fairies are fluent in light communication.


Cliff Fairy Family

Cliff Fairies live in homes hollowed out from the rock.  In the windy cliff environment, round doors are useful.  This drawing shows a family of Cliff Fairies.  There is a Father Fairy on one side of the entrance to their home and a Mother Fairy with her baby on the other side.  There is a little Girl Fairy on a tiny fairy-sized swing on the side with the mother and baby. 

NOTE:  These drawings can be found in printable form by clicking on the button labeled "Fantasy, Myths, and Circus." Then, if you are accessing this site in late June or early July 2025, these drawings' titles will be at the bottom of the list of drawings.  Click on the desired title to get the printable page.

T. rex Hatching Time coloring page

 You have come to Robin's Great Coloring Pages! 

This is a blog that has over 3000 coloring pages for you to print and color...

...or for your kids, etc., to color.  

Today's new drawing is of a T. rex chick hatching under its mother's care.



T. rex Hatching Time


Tyrannosaurus rex was a huge carnivorous Theropod dinosaur.  It was a good parent because it was a very successful species.  It lived 62-65 or 66 million years ago.  That's over 3 million years on Earth.  That is good for a species. This drawing shows a young mother Tyrannosaurus rex at the hatching time of her first clutch of eggs.  Later clutches will find her much bigger.  It is thought that a Tyrannosaurus rex grew until it died in its 20s or 30s.  In this picture, Mother T. rex is a young adult of maybe 17 years old.  She would have been maybe 33 feet long, but still sexually mature.  As a full-sized adult, she would weigh 8 or so tons. 

Research published last year suggested that the biggest found T. rex (estimated at 8 or so tons) may not have been the top size.  The researchers suggested that there may have been huge T. rex specimens that weighed up to 70% more... That would be 15 tons or 30,000 lbs. It may have been 50+ feet long and stood 24 feet high.  

It is known that some dinosaurs lined their nests with leaves like these.  The few Theropod eggs found, with chicks inside, indicate that the babies would need care for several years.  Other data show that Tyrannosaurs were pack animals.  So there would have been other dinosaur family or pack members to help care for the chicks.

A Few Animal coloring pages

 This is my free coloring pages blog.

Today's new drawings are of animals.



Bandit the Paint Mustang

Mustangs are free-roaming wild horses in Western North America.  They are the same Genus and species of the domestic horse because it is thought that their ancestors were feral horses.  There IS some evidence that possibly horses WERE used by Native Americans in pre-Columbian days. The genus and species of horses are Equus caballus. So, it is possible that the wild mustangs are descendants of a breed of horses that lived in North America and were used by the Native Americans. 


Marbled Salamander


Marbled salamanders are found in the Eastern United States.  The nymphs are aquatic, and in spite of this drawing, the adults are mostly terrestrial and are not great swimmers.  However, the adults breed in the water because the female salamander lays jelly-like eggs, and then the male fertilizes the eggs.  The Genus and species of this salamander are: Ambystoma opacum.




North African Spiny-tailed Lizard

Uri lizards are found in the Middle East and Central Asia. They get most of their water from the food they eat.  They obviously are desert animals. They are omnivores, but most of their diet consists of plants. They will eat an occasional insect.  The Genus and species are: Uromastyx acanthinura.  We saw this animal at a small zoo called Zootopia in Logan, Utah.  I took a photo and drew it for you.  Sorry, but its spiny tail was behind the rock. 




Snowy Egret

(The bird with golden slippers)

Near us is a large bird refuge called the Bear River Migratory Bird Refuge.  This Snowy Egret was photographed by me two days ago.  I then drew it for you to print and color... although the Snowy Egret itself is white.  But, you can color the water and plants, and sky, etc. The Snowy Egret has "golden slippers."  Because it has black legs with yellow feet. They are waders and live in marshes and swamps, etc. They live in various parts of North America, including Mexico, the southeastern states of the USA, the Western USA states, and along the East Coast.  They also live along the Gulf of Mexico.  Interesting that they live in the Rocky Mountain states and in some of the plains states.  By the way, this bird is called the bird with the golden slippers because of those "golden feet."  Sorry, I did not draw it with one foot out of the water.  



Boy Beaver




Girl Beaver

Beavers are the engineers of the mammals of the Animal Kingdom.  When the elk were stripping the trees because of too high numbers in Yellowstone National Park, the wolves were introduced. Then the elk population went down, and the beavers returned.  The beaver ponds were a great habitat for many more species of animals, plus they were a more stable source of drinking water. 

By the way, the longer eyelashes are a cartooning trick to make an animal female. 


Plush Bunny in Garden

This plush bunny or stuffed toy animal belongs to my granddaughter, and she wanted me to draw it.

NOTE: These animal drawings are found by clicking on the button labeled "Animals." Then scroll down to the last part of the list.  I will also post the Snowy Egret on "Birds." Remember that newer drawings are at the bottom or end of the list of drawing titles.  Have fun coloring!

Gracia the Flower Fairy coloring page

This is my free coloring pages blog.

Today's new drawing is of a lovely Flower Fairy.



 Gracia the Flower Fairy

I should tell you that Gracia is also a Water Lily Fairy.  She loves life on the pond.  She sometimes sleeps inside water lily flowers.  She even will rest on lily pads, but most mortals, if they saw her at all, would see a frog.  Water Lily Fairies are sometimes even considered a type of Pond Fairy.  

You may notice that Gracia has strikingly beautiful eyes.  That is something that many Fairies are known for.  Gracia's eyes seem to be in a permanent smile.  Gracia also knows that true beauty comes from kindness and using your gifts to help others.  That is why she has learned so much about medicinal plants - so she can help others. 

You see, Gracia is also a Healer Fairy.  She specializes in the water lily's medicinal uses.  Both roots and leaves have various medicinal uses.  Gracia gathers parts of water lilies and makes teas and tinctures to help mostly mortals.  She can, like all Fairies, internalize her wings, cloak her pointed ears, and transform to mortal size.  In fact, I met Gracia in her mortal form.  She was at a shop that sells many types of medicinal herbs.  I recognized her as a Fairy because of her striking eyes. 

NOTE:  This drawing is found in printable form by clicking on the button labeled "Fantasy, Myths, and Circus.  Then scroll down.  If you are accessing this during the summer of 2025, you will find this drawing at or near the bottom of the list.  Have fun coloring this beautiful and intelligent Fairy.

D-Day 81st Anniversary Higgins Boat Landing Craft & Destroyer USS Fitch coloring pages

This is my free coloring pages blog.

Today, we celebrate the D-Day invasion, 81 years ago.

This invasion was the beginning of the end of Hitler's fascist rule.

The boat is a Higgins Boat. 



LCVP Higgins Boat

The Higgins Boat was the primary landing craft of the D-Day invasion. LCVP stands for Landing Craft Vehicle Personnel.  It could carry 36 combat soldiers. It had a drop-down ramp.  It could alternatively carry a jeep or 8000 lbs of cargo.  It was actually the primary landing craft for the US Army and Marines during World War II.  It was designed by swamp boat builder Andrew Jackson Higgins out of New Orleans. 



USS Fitch Destroyer

The sea was rough.  Many amphibious tanks sank in the high surf. German defenses were particularly fierce on Omaha Beach. Many men died during the invasion.  Yet there were amazing feats of courage that won the day.  This included some US Navy destroyers that sailed in close to take out the German bunkers with 5-inch guns. The USS Fitch sailed in close to Utah Beach.  It was directed by General Theodore Roosevelt, who was onshore with his men.

Battle of Midway 83rd Anniversary with Carrier Planes and a new drawing of the USS Yorktown CV-5 coloring pages

Today, on my free coloring pages blog, we are remembering

The Battle of Midway - that occurred 83 years ago today.

These are some of the aircraft that were involved in the battle. 


 F-4F Wildcat Fighter Plane

The F-4F was the main carrier-based United States Navy fighter.  The plane in the distance is a Japanese Zero fighter.  It was a great fighter but the Zero was lightly armored so the American pilots learned how to take advantage of this weakness.  But the Zero shot down many American planes at Midway.



Devastator TBD Torpedo Bomber

These planes were obsolete, and the crews paid a terrible price. They did not make a single successful torpedo hit, but they DID draw down the Japanese fighter cover so that when the dive bombers attacked, there were no Japanese Zero fighters to hinder them. 


Dauntless Dive Bomber

This is the plane that finally did the damage to the Japanese aircraft carriers.  In a span of only about five minutes, they fatally damaged 3 fleet carriers.  A few hours later, they fatally damaged the fourth and final Japanese carrier.  One American aircraft carrier was also damaged by bombs and torpedoes and finally sunk by a Japanese submarine.  This aircraft carrier was the Yorktown.  The Yorktown can be seen in the distance of the Torpedo Bomber drawing.  AND the Yorktown, CV-5, is the main subject of the drawing below. 



USS Yorktown CV-5

(This is the one new drawing today.)

The USS Yorktown was a fleet carrier and was the only US carrier hit in the Battle of Midway.  She had been damaged at the Battle of the Coral Sea, but repairmen were miraculously able to repair her in time for the battle.  Some personnel were still onboard when she sailed.  So when the Japanese first hit it with bombs, the sailors (with help from the reapairmen) were able to repair the ship well enough in a few hours to be operational.  When the next wave of Japanese bombers hit her, they thought it was an undamaged second aircraft carrier.  Sadly, she was hit with two torpedo bombers' torpedoes, and the ship had to be abandoned.  Then later, she was spotted and torpedoed by a Japanese submarine.  By the way, dive bombers from the Yorktown fatally hit the Japanese carrier Soryu.

NOTE: All these drawings are found on the "Vehicles and Military Vehicles" page of this blog.  Just click on the button and scroll down to find the correct drawing.  The Yorktown drawing will be at the end of the list or near it if you are accessing this during the summer of 2025.

Irish Elk or Megaloceros giganteus coloring page

This is my free coloring pages blog.

Every few days, I add another drawing or two or three.

These are drawings that I did myself, freehand.

You may print these for kids or adults to color. 

Today's new drawing is of a prehistoric, gigantic deer.



Irish Elk by a River

The Megaloceros giganteus was a prehistoric member of the deer family.  It was the largest member of the deer family ever to live on Earth.  It is also called the Irish Elk, although it is not an elk.  It is more closely related to fallow deer. Of course, fallow deer weigh around 200 lbs.  

The Irish Elk weighed more like 1540 lbs or 700 kg.  Megaloceros was up to almost 12 feet high - if you count the height of the antlers.  That is around 3.70 meters tall.  

This was a VERY successful species because it lived between 400,000 years ago and 7,500 years ago.  It is thought that climate change and human hunting probably drove it to extinction. 

NOTE:  This drawing can be found to print by clicking on the button labeled "Paleontology."  Then look for it at the bottom of the "Cenozoic Era" section of the list.  Have fun coloring!
