Named for the rich red hues of its plumage, Fox Sparrows (Passerella iliaca) are very large sparrows which breed in remote places of coniferous forest and dense mountain scrub in the northern areas of northern America.
It's certainly unusual for me to receive a cover postmarked from St Pierre et Miquelon and it was interesting to see the bird stamp on this cover is part of an ongoing annual bird series started in 2007.
Of extra interest on the cover are the two definitive stamps from France which are overprinted SPM.
