This year’s secular holiday stamps feature three birds that overwinter in Canada: a cardinal (Permanent domestic rate), a blue jay (U.S. rate) and an evening grosbeak (international rate). The colourful stamps designed by Hambly & Woolley Inc. and illustrated by Sandra Dionisi provide a festive and wintery look that highlights the beauty of the natural world during the holiday season.
