It's only a stylised drawing, but I reckon they're realistic enough to identify. From a book of my daughter's.

It's called [u]Welcome to the Zoo[/u] by Alison Jay. It a picture book (i.e. no words). It's one of little Grip's favorite books.

It's a brill book - no words, but there are dozens of little stories going on running through each picture. Like the poodle with the hat, and the raccoon going through the picnic basket. You see the guy setting up the picnic and eating it, and the raccoons nicking their food whilst he's taking pictures - so much fun ๐Ÿ™‚

I fear birds, ever since palaeontologists realised that Raptors looked like this :-0
