It’s some time since we had a pictorial quiz.
Many people have at some stage, like me, been interested in postage stamps with
birds on them. Here are eight illustrations from stamps. One point
for the name of each species. An extra point for the name of the issuing jurisdiction.
All species occur naturally in the relevant jurisdiction, except for one, where
there is a definite connection with the illustration. All but one of the issuers
have a coast washed by the Pacific Ocean, in fact, technically, perhaps all of
them, but that might be getting a bit misleading.
6 points – good
10 points – very good
12 – excellent
13 or above - uncanny
Answers direct to me please. Answers not published
before next Wednesday. I might do another instalment in due course.
