Step 1: Start by drawing a circle near the top, right side of the paper as a guide for the white-crowned sparrow's head. To draw the circle, first make four marks to determine the height and width. Then connect the marks using curved lines. Sketch lightly at first so that it's easy to erase if you make a mistake. If you're struggling to draw the circle, just trace the outer rim of a circular object like a coin or a bottle cap.

Step 2: Inside, draw two intersecting lines as construction guides to help you place the sparrow's facial features later. Draw the vertical line in the middle. Draw the horizontal line a tiny bit lower than the middle.

Step 4: Under the head, draw a big circle as a guide for the top part of the bird's body. Use the four-marks method to draw this circle too. Draw the circle off to the right of the head a bit. This circle should be about twice the size of the circle for the head. This circle should be behind the bird's head, so don't overlap the edges at the top.

Step 5: Make a small mark on the lower, right side for the first part of the guide for the lower part of the white-crowned sparrow's body. Connect the mark to the big circle using long, curved lines to create a big arc. At the top, connect the head to the body using sloping lines to create the guide for the bird's neck.
