About this stamp
On the Stamp
A pair of Indian paradise flycatchers on a branch, the white male with its long tail and the chestnut female, on a ₹50 definitive.
Indian Paradise Flycatcher
India Post issued this ₹50 definitive on 30 October 2000; Colnect records it as printed by photogravure at the Security Printing Press, Nashik, on paper watermarked with the Asokan Capital. The Indian paradise flycatcher is a medium-sized bird of the monarch flycatcher family, native to the Indian subcontinent and found across most of Bangladesh, India and Sri Lanka. No India Post brochure for this stamp is online, so this text draws on Wikipedia, Colnect and the stamp itself.
