When I was looking for reptiles, I saw heaps of bird coins.
I just have to find time to go back through them.

Here's a few to start with...

That's another one from NZ.  The NZ 6 pence also has a bird on it,

Wait till Ellekitty starts posting pictures of all her birdies! Actually, there's probably a lot of them somewhere here already.

Very nice coins Steve! However I think that just might be an angel or maybe some type of godess on that first coin you have pictured.   Grin
