Description
This stamp is dedicated to the Northern Duck (Aythya nyroca), a diving duck recognizable by its mahogany plumage and its distinctive white eye on the male. By representing the bird in its natural habitat of reed beds, the stamp highlights the ornithological richness of Tunisia, a major migratory crossroads between Europe and Africa. This message focuses on the need to conserve bodies of fresh and brackish water, pillars of the national natural heritage, essential to the survival of this species classified as near-threatened internationally.
