This 1 Chhetrum postage stamp from Bhutan depicts the Blood Pheasant (Ithaginis cruentus), a striking bird native to the eastern Himalayas. Issued in the 1960s, the design captures the male’s vivid red plumage against a pale winter background, reflecting Bhutan’s natural heritage and reverence for wildlife. The script features both English and Dzongkha text, with “BHUTAN” prominently printed below the image. This issue is part of Bhutan’s early definitive bird series, celebrated for its artistic portrayal of the nation’s fauna.
