📮 Cuba 2009 Fauna / Local Birds Stamp Set

  • There is a thematic set described as “Cuba postage stamps year 2009 Fauna / Local Birds set”, offered by stamp sellers as a topical set depicting birds native to or associated with Cuba. It’s listed as a product for collectors, though detailed catalogue numbers and species are not always provided in these commercial listings.

🦜 Birds Actually Issued in Cuba in 2009

According to a specialized thematic catalogue (BirdTheme.org), Cuba issued “Turnat 2009” bird stamps on 14 September 2009. These appear to correspond to what many sellers refer to as the Fauna / Local Birds set — and include the following designs:

DenominationBird depictedScientific name
15 cFernandina’s FlickerColaptes fernandinae
40 cZapata SparrowTorreornis inexpectata
50 cZapata WrenFerminia cerverai
65 cRed‑shouldered BlackbirdAgelaius assimilis
75 cBee HummingbirdMellisuga helenae
90 cCuban TodyTodus multicolor

These are Cuban and Caribbean bird species — many of which are endemic or highly characteristic of Cuban avifauna (e.g., Zapata Sparrow and Zapata Wren are endemic to Cuba) — making the issue a good topical “local birds” set for collectors.

Additionally, a 1 p value (Cuban Parakeet Psittacara euops) is listed in some sources as part of the design layout of the same issue (often as an “imperforate” souvenir or separate value).

  • 14 September 2009 — The stamps are listed with this date under the “Turnat 2009” issue in thematic listings.
