how to draw a bald eagle
Step 1:
Start by drawing the pointed beak of the bald eagle. Add a curved line to create the tongue.
Step 2:
Add a bucket shape for the head and include a zigzag line for the neck. Sketch in the eagle’s eye and define the area around the beak. Include an eyebrow ridge to give the eagle a fierce look.
Step 3:
Extend a curved line down from the head to form the neck and the eagle’s body. Make sure the body is larger and elongated.
Step 4:
Start from the neck to create the front part of the bald eagle by forming a round shape.
Step 5:
Add more lines to the body for feather texture.
Step 6:
Add a fan-like shape at the bottom of the body for the tail feathers.
Step 7:
Include lines within the tail for detail.
Step 8:
Draw two short lines downward from the body for legs, ending with talons. Eagles have powerful legs and sharp claws, so depict these with a few sharp triangular shapes.
Step 9:
Bald eagles have a distinctive white head and tail, with a brown body and wings, and yellow beak and feet. Color your drawing accordingly to bring it to life.
