Issue Notice:
- Softly colored grey-brown dove.
- Body uniformly beige-brown with a black crescent on the nape. Smaller and paler than the street pigeon, with a proportionately longer, square tail.
- Prefers farms and suburbs, avoids extensive forests. Calls out a cooing "kuh-kuu, ku".
- Introduced from Eurasia to the Bahamas, thence spread rapidly across southern and western North America in the last decade.
- ATTENTION: The stamp sheets of this size are unfortunately usually folded centrally in the perforation. But that is not up to us, but rather to the postal administrations.
This buckling can lead to tears in the perforation, especially at the edges of the sheet.
