On the 25th of May 2010, the Ministry of Information and Communications (MIC) issues the stampset: “Precious and rare birds of Vietnam coastal area” consisting of 03 values and 01 block with their denominations of 2,000d; 6,500d; 8,500d and 14,500d. On the stamps is the image of 4 species of precious and rare emigrating birds in the coastal area of Vietnam: - Value 3-1: denomination of 2,000d - Nordmann's Greenshank Tringa guttifer is an Endangered species according to BirdLife International where its migratory routes are confined to East Asian Australasian Flyway. It is classified as Endangered (EN) on the IUCN Red List 2007. It is found in Xuan Thuy National Park, Nam Dinh province. - Value 3-2: denomination of 6,500d - Spoon-billed Sandpiper Calidris pygmeus is a unique and rapidly disappearing shorebird. If it becomes extinct - which is a distinct possibility now - it will be entirely due to human activity: reclamation of key staging sites, disturbance on and of the breeding grounds, and hunting.There is now evidence that the current population might not exceed 1,000 breeding pairs. - Value 3-3: denomination of 8,500d - Saunders's Gull Larus saundersi is a species of gull in the Laridae family. It is found in China, Hongkong, Japan, North Korea, Sound Korea, Macao, Russia, Taiwan and Vietnam. Its natural habitats are estuarine waters and intertidal marshes. - Block: denomination of 14,500d - Indian Skimmer Rynchops albicollis is classified as Vulnerable on the IUCN Red List 2004. They are known for their unique bill, which has a much longer lower mandible and is perfectly adapted to their specialised feeding technique of skimming the water's surface for prey. |
