Bakiribu, a Filter Feeder Pterosaur from Brazil

 This is my free coloring pages blog. 

Today's new drawing or coloring page is of a newly discovered Pterosaur from Brazil.

Bakiribu, a Filter Feeder Pterosaur from Brazil

This Pterosaur was a filter feeder. It had a large beak with tiny hair-like teeth like baleen in a whale's mouth. So Bakiribu ate tiny things like krill, blue-green algae, plankton, etc. It did not eat fish like most Pterosaurs.

 Bakiribu was discovered in a "regurgitite" or fossilized vomit. (Yuck!)  The regurgitite had fish bones as well, and it is thought that the Pterosaur was eaten by a Spinosaur. Spinosaurs, like Spinosaurus, were primarily fish eaters or piscivores. Apparently, a Spinosaur caught the Bakiribu when the Pterosaur was feeding in the water.

Paleontologists are not sure of the size of Bakiribu. It was probably a medium-sized Pterosaur with a wingspan of something like 10-15 feet. That is 3-5 or so meters. The name "Bakiribu" means 
"comb" in Kariri, an indigenous language of eastern Brazil. Sadly, that language is no longer spoken. The Pterosaur was named "comb" because its mouth had comb-like teeth for filter feeding in the water.

House Finch coloring page

 

This is my free coloring pages blog. 

Today the new drawing is from a photo I took near our home.

It is a drawing of a House Finch.

House Finch on a Branch

My House Finch photo

This drawing is based on the photo I took on our daily walk. Obviously, the drawing is only based on the photo, not exact. We see this House Finch frequently. The photo was taken near sunset, so the light is not great, so the orange colors are not clear. But we could see the orange with our naked eyes. If you look up House Finch, you will see the colors better. I am pretty sure this is a male bird. They have an orange stripe on their head above their eye. The males also have an orange upper chest. The House Finch is around 5 3/4 to 6 inches long. That is 14-15 cm. Their range is from Washington State down to the Baja Peninsula and over to Texas; then from the West Coast over to the Midwest USA, & on to New England. My wife Laurel and I are birders, so we notice birds.

Lexia the Paint Unicorn Fairy

 

So, you have found or refound this, my free coloring pages blog.

I, Robin Lyman, have drawn over 3000 coloring pages for you to print and color.

Today I drew a Paint Unicorn with her Fairy Friend, Lexia.

Lexia the Paint Unicorn Fairy

Fairies are often friends with Unicorns. In fact, some Fairies and Unicorns are BEST friends. That is the case with Lexia and Pintada. Lexia is a Unicorn Fairy, and Pintada is her best friend, a Paint Unicorn Fairy. Of course, you are seeing Lexia in full mortal size. Like all Fairies, Lexia can transform to mortal size.  Her natural Fairy size is about 5 inches tall. 

You should know that Lexia and Pintada both love animals and seek to take care of them. Lexia even works in the mortal world when she is not in the Fairy Realm. She works with animals, and they love her. I have seen this firsthand.  Of course, almost all Fairies love animals. And pretty much all Unicorns love Fairies and other animals. However, realize that Unicorns are sentient beings like mortal humans, Fairies, Elves, Dwarfs, and Merpeople. Since Unicorns do not have the vocal structure to talk, they communicate with Fairies telepathically. 

Like most Fairies, Lexia is very beautiful. But much of that beauty rests inside - that is, she is a very kind and good Fairy and kindness and goodness ARE beautiful. 

Unicorns are also considered beautiful and part of that is Unicorns are Creatures of Light. They too are good and kind. 

Let me explain that this drawing was done rather quickly tonight with not a lot of detail. The wings are lacewings, and they are translucent - almost transparent. Also, Paint Unicorns have the magical power to change their spots to different colors. You might see a Paint Unicorn IF you are very special. And you may see them with several different colors of spots, like a Rainbow Unicorn. OR you may see them with only one color of spots, like a typical paint horse.

Eve giving Adam the Forbidden Fruit

 Welcome to my free coloring pages blog. 

I am doing something different this year. I hope to have an illustration to go along with the study schedule

of the Old Testament that 

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints is doing this year.

Hence, today's drawing, which was done during Sunday School,

is of Adam and Eve.

Eve gives Adam the Forbidden Fruit

Adam and Eve were in the Garden of Eden in an immortal state. They were commanded not to partake of the Fruit of the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil, or there would be consequences. Eve partook of the fruit first, then she gave some to Adam. This made them both mortal and subject to death. They were sent out into the world to live by the sweat of their brow... meaning they would have to work. 

This decision was actually a wise and knowing decision they made so that they could have children and have a mortal existence and test here on Earth. 

NOTE: This coloring page can be printed by clicking on the button labeled "Religious." Then, scroll down to the last title in the Old Testament section.  There are a few other drawings of Adam and Eve.

Allosaurus Close-Up coloring page

 

Welcome to my free coloring pages blog.

There are well over 3000 drawings I have done as coloring pages.

Feel free to print and color them.

Today, we have a new drawing of Allosaurus.

Allosaurus Close-Up

It has been a while since I posted one of my dinosaur drawings. So today I drew one of my favorite Theropods, Allosaurus. Allosaurus was an extremely successful genus of large predatory or Theropod dinosaurs. They grew up to 40 feet long. Although similar to a T. rex, Allosaurus lived in the Jurassic Period around 155-145 million years ago. T. rex appeared 72 million years ago in the late Cretaceous Period. So, these two dinosaurs were separated in time by 73 million years. Therefore, Tyrannosaurus lived closer to OUR time than it did to Allosaurus. Isn't that interesting? 

Allosaurus was a top predator, although there were a few other Theropods, like Torvosaurus. Allosaurs mostly were around 2500 lbs; however, some may have grown up to 4500 lbs. This was significantly lighter than T. rex. But again, T. rex never ran into an Allosaurus. 

On this close-up drawing, notice that you can see the marks of the fenestra in the skull. These fenestra were holes in the skull that made the skull lighter and gave powerful muscles places to attach. Allosaurus had a smaller skull than T. rex, and it had much larger and more useful arms with three deadly claws for grappling with prey. 

Many modern reptiles have stripes or spots, so I gave this Allosaurus spots. The small dinosaur in the background is a Dryosaurus and it has stripes. It was a small herbivore Iguanodont with a weight of only 175-200 lbs. 

NOTE: This drawing is available in printable form by clicking on the "Paleontology" button. Then scroll down to the bottom of the "Mesozoic" section. Click on the title and you can print the coloring page that I drew today just for you.  Have fun coloring!

Happy New Year 2026 message and coloring page

 Happy New Year! 

This is my free coloring pages blog. 

For this holiday, I have drawn Father Time and the Baby New Year.

Happy New Year 2026

And now I want to share a poem I wrote for the new year. The poem speaks for itself.

A New Year's Message

We know it has been a rough year

Nearly all have shed at least one tear

But time moves on, and we see

That there is time for us to be

To be and do things that are good

Like a good Christian should

We'll find that when we do

We will feel way less blue

Helping others along

Will improve our own life song

When we help the lost find their way

We'll have our own happier day

We should try to be a Good Samaritan

Where we strive to do all we can

To make others' burdens light

And we'll see less darkness and more light

Finally, remember to be kind

To both loved ones and strangers you find

Jesus said to love one another

That includes your father and mother

And also your sister and brother

And your husband or wife

Who brings such joy to your life

And the people you meet

At work or on the street

 Just be kind and loving to absolutely everyone

That is the message from God's Only Begotten Son

Aurora el Hada Dragón página para colorear

Has encontrado mi blog de páginas para colorear gratis. Hoy he dibujado, para ti, para imprimir y colorear... ¡un Hada Dragón! Esto también fue publicado en inglés.

 Aurora the Dragon Fairy

Aurora el Hada Dragón

Aurora es un Hada Dragón. Ella ayuda a cuidar (y domesticar) a los dragones modernos. Entonces, todavía HAY Dragones por ahí, pero las Hadas Dragón los mantienen mansos e inofensivos. Los dragones, como las hadas, tienen una magia poderosa y pueden esconderse de la mayoría de los mortales. Aurora es firme, pero muy amable también. Aquí se la ve con un joven Dragón. Ella tiene forma mortal, o más correctamente, tamaño mortal... para entrenar mejor a este Dragón juvenil. Puede notar que usa ropa moderna. Esto se debe a que ella vive una doble vida. Como hacen muchas hadas, se casó con un mortal. Ella tiene una carrera en la que sirve a los mortales, pero también tiene una carrera a tiempo parcial en el Reino de las Hadas. Por supuesto que esa carrera es como un Hada Dragón. Ella también es muy hermosa... y con eso me refiero a hermoso por dentro y por fuera. Por supuesto, un alma hermosa es, con mucho, lo más importante. Necesito agregar que Aurora también es muy valiente. Incluso entre las Hadas, las Hadas Dragón son muy respetadas y admiradas por el trabajo importante y, a veces, peligroso que realizan. Aurora es conocida por trabajar con Dragones que viven en México y Centroamérica. Este Dragón es un hocico Corto juvenil de Tepeji Del Río del centro de México. Oh, ¿mencioné que Aurora habla inglés y español con fluidez? Ella vive en los Estados Unidos de América, pero su asignación de Hadas Dragón es en México. Por eso también publiqué esto en español.
