Australia: Birds

Hello collectors...!

Are you a fauna topic collector? Or maybe a bird collector? If so, you will enjoy the Australian cover that I have here to show you...


The 1st stamp on the left was issued in 1995, depicting Blind aid, in a 2v set.

The other 3 stamps showing different animals were issued in a 4v set in the year 1993. Very nice stamps aren't they?
