Travel the World of Postage Stamps - International Stamp Exhibition CAPEX '87, Toronto, Canada - Grey-headed Kingfisher (Halcyon leucocephala) - Cambodia 1987 - Michel Cambodia 871 - my hobby.
Greetings friends!
We continue to study the different species of birds that we see on postage stamps from Series International Stamp Exhibition CAPEX '87, Toronto, Canada, issued in tropical Cambodia in 1987.
On another postage stamp with a face value of 1.50 ៛ - Cambodian riel, we see an interesting bird - Grey-headed Kingfisher (Halcyon leucocephala).
It is a relative of kingfishers, and. like them, she is an excellent fisherman.
Its vision and elongated beak allow you to see and hit a small fish that swims in the water column. This is a very accurate hunter and shooter, if so it can be said about a bird.
But, oddly enough, on a postage stamp issued in Cambodia, we see a bird that lives in Africa.
This is a kind of rip-off, lol.
Show the nature of your country on your banknotes.
But, the order must be fulfilled. and no one wanted to run through the jungle of Cambodia in search of birds with the risk of running into an anti-personnel mine).
Let's take a look at this postage stamp.
