2021 Owls
Mint Sheet of 4 & Souvenir Sheet
- Includes five mint stamps picturing different species of owl
- A great start or addition to your bird, raptor, animal, or other topical stamp collection
Issuing Country: Marshall Islands
Value: $5 Marshall Islands
Format: Sheet of 4 & Souvenir Sheet
About the stamp designs: The stamps on the sheet picture photo-quality images of four different owl species: great horned owl, barred owl, screech owl, and snowy owl. The souvenir sheet pictures another species, the barn owl, along with text that reads: “Barn Owls swallow their prey whole – skin, bones, and all. About twice a day, they cough up pellets instead of passing all that material through their digestive tracts.” In addition to the images, the stamps on all five stamps also include the birds’ common and scientific names.
History the stamp represents: Owls are from the order Strigiformes, which is made up of more than 200 species. Most of the birds in this order are solitary, nocturnal birds of prey with sharp talons, binocular vision, binaural hearing, and specially developed feathers that allow for near-silent flight. Owls are found everywhere on Earth except the polar regions and a few isolated islands. They are divided into two families: true (typical) owls (Strigidae) and barn owls (Tytonidae).
