Additional information

Belarus has issued collector-focused copper-nickel roubles in wildlife series since the early 2000s, targeting thematic collectors rather than circulation. The hoopoe — Upupa epops — is a migratory species that passes through Belarus seasonally, not a resident bird, which makes its inclusion in a national wildlife series a minor ornithological curiosity worth noting.
