EUGY Hoopoe

The hoopoe is what happens when a bird commits to a look: a fan-like crest, zebra-striped wings and a name taken straight from its own “oop-oop-oop” call. It’s a rare and thrilling visitor to British shores, but EUGY’s card version will happily take up permanent residence just glue the numbered pieces in order and raise that crest.
