Bpost has
published images (PDF) of all the stamps to be issued in 2021, which includes
this image of a
Common Cuckoo (Cuculus canorus).
Update 4 February 2021 A correspondent has informed me that this stamp was not issued on the expected date. I hope it will eventually appear. Update 5 February 2021 Actually, this stamp was issued on time, but is available to only a select few groups of collectors. It may be difficult to obtain similarly to 2018's Red-crested Pochard (Netta rufina). |

I have been sent an image of a sheet of
10 stamps due to be issued by the Netherlands, in 2021, but I am awaiting confirmation of the date.
The format is similar to the ones issued in 2020 showing birds of certain habitats. This new series is part of 12 sheets with Dutch landscapes to be issued the next three years.
The first shows fauna of
Dwingelerveld National Park and includes
2 birds:
Yellowhammer (Emberiza citrinella) and
Common Crane (Grus grus).
Update 3 January 2021 Here are details of this issue and dates for the next 3 issues due in 2021, but with no images yet. The better image reveals that to the right of the deer, but not enough on the stamp is a European Stonechat (Saxicola rubicola). |
