| Additional information |
Belarus launched its nature conservation commemorative series in the early 2000s as part of a broader program tied to environmental protection agreements with neighboring states. The White Stork holds particular cultural weight in the region — rural Belarusian communities have historically encouraged nesting on rooftops and farm structures, viewing the birds as omens of good harvest and household protection. That folk tradition is centuries old and still practiced in villages across the Brest and Grodno oblasts.
