Start drawing lightly so you can erase the unnecessary lines later. 

Begin with the arch of the back. Make the arch slope outward toward the tail. The back or top line of the neck is just as long as the back and may curve like an "S." Use a circle to get the size and shape of the head. The line of the bottom of the neck curves all the way down and continues to the tail.

The beak is big. Draw a rectangle on the front of the head and then a triangle going down.

The legs are as long as the body. They start halfway on the body and halfway down is the knees.

After you have the basic outline of the body, then add the details.

The eye is slightly forward on the head; it is small and has a dot in the middle.

The beak is black at the triangle part. There is a line from the top end of the beak to the bottom of the eye.

The feathers sweep down and back on the body. There is a dark line of feathers low on the body.

The tail feathers droop down at the end.

The feet are webbed, with three toes.
