France’s four-stamp owl collector pairs tawny and little owls
Philately NewsLa Poste plans to issue its four-stamp “À la rencontre de la chouette” collector on 9 November 2026. The self-adhesive stamps use wildlife photographs by Michel Chardin, with graphic design credited to La Nouvelle.
The collector brings together the tawny owl and little owl. La Poste’s accompanying account contrasts the tawny owl’s woodland habits with the little owl’s preference for hedgerows and orchards, habitats whose disappearance threatens the latter species. The photographs show the birds and details of their surroundings.
The offset-printed presentation measures 148.5 × 210 mm. Each stamp has a listed face value of €1.52 and permanent Lettre verte validity for letters up to 20 grams. The operator’s validity information covers France and routes involving Andorra and Monaco.
