An 11:17 flag with a large white letter "V" overall, extending to the top and
bottom edges of the cloth and set in a bold serifed face limiting three areas:
Red at the hoist, dark yellow on the middle (the roughly triangular space inside
the letter), and very dark blue at the fly; on the yellow area, three green
birds facing the hoist and aligned along the descending leg of the letter. António Martins-Tuválkin, 7 January 2024
The Vogelenzang flag was put into use by the Dutch village of Vogelenzang on
March 9, 2013. The flag has the colors of the flag of North Holland and the flag
of Bloemendaal . The 3 birds are on a coat of arms on the baptismal font in the
Church of Our Lady of the Ascension.
