This September 22, 1983 issue of Japan (Scott #1535) shows Blakiston's fish owl (Bubo blakistoni). It is from the country's 1983-4 series of 10 stamps of Endangered Birds. The owl is identified as Ketupa blakistoni on the stamp, but since the time of issue it has been reclassified/renamed as Bubo blakistoni from DNA examination. According to Wikipedia, "Blakiston's fish owl is the largest living species of owl...in the three major categories: weight, length, and wingspan."  |
