It was rare to see stamps show bird eggs in all bird issues, the last time presented here was the definitive issue of the Bahamas, the cover features egg of 8 different species. Here, is another example from the Faroes, shown 4 different eggs and their chicks. All of 4 are common and have been appeared on the Faroese stamps before.
