This stamp is dedicated to the Black-billed Magpie (Pica pica), a sedentary bird very present in orchards and wooded areas of northern Tunisia. The faithful illustration allows you to identify its contrasting black and white plumage with metallic reflections, testifying to the richness of Tunisian avifauna. This program is part of a desire to promote local natural heritage, recalling that urban and agricultural fauna are an integral part of the country's landscape identity. It is an invitation to observe and protect the bird species that liven up the Tunisian countryside.
