Mauritius1965 - 1968 Birds The designs for these Mauritian birds first came out in 1965, and were reissued with an overprint 'self-government' in 1967, when the tropic bird came out. They were reissued for a third time in 1968 with different background colours. If you only want the pictures of the birds, you could go for the cheaper 1965 ones. The others tend to have more appeal for serious collectors, though personally I think the 1967 blue background for the 3c Fody is more attractive than the 1965 one with the brown background. 1965 Birds The 2c, 3c and 10c are shown here. 2c Bourbon White-Eye (yellow background) £0.05 3c Rodriguez Fody (brown background) £0.05 5c Paradise Flycatcher £0.10 10c Mauritius Fody £0.05 1967 Bird 2c Red Tailed Tropic bird £0.50 1967 Birds Designs as for 1965, but with 'self-government' overprint The 4c is shown here 2c Bourbon White-Eye £0.10 3c Rodriguez Fody £0.15 4c Olive white-eye £0.15 1968 Birds Designs as for 1965 but with different background colours. I have a few more of these 1965-1968 birds, including some higher face values, please ask. 1989 Environmental Preservation 30cs Common greenshank £0.20 More Mauritian bird stamps available, please ask. would
