Draw a small circle in the middle of the head to form the eye, and a dot within the beak to form the nostril.

Extend a few short lines from above the eye, forming eyelashes. Draw a large circle within the eye, and a smaller oval and circle within it. Shade the area between the larger circle and the smaller shapes.

Draw a series of connected, curved lines above the tail to form the ruff of feathers along the leg. Draw a small enclosed shape below this to form the leg itself. Beneath the leg, draw several small tear drop shapes to form the toes.
