The eland is quite chunky! And, what an interesting pose for the elephant. I like how the egret is shown with its neck in two different 's' shapes, and also elongated.
ReplyDeleteThere are quite a few in that series, Sheikh and Wildlife. I don't have them all, yet!
Delete...names of country sure have changed over the years.
ReplyDeleteEgret and Eland are original choices for E. You must have a lot of stamps of animals!
ReplyDeleteA few less than a week ago. I had all my animal stamps together in an envelope to work on them and Sunday Stamps. My cat hacked up a wet hairball mess, INTO the envelope! How she managed that I don't know. Most were fine, a few I could clean off, but four or five were too far gone. I didn't find the mess right away. Who would look down into an envelope to do that? A cat!
DeleteOooooh! Sorry to read that. At lest you could rescue some stamps.
DeleteGreat animal stamps! Great E choices. :-)
ReplyDeleteI like the shades of brown on the Burundi stamp, I imagine the Eland is difficult to see in the wild until it moves. The Egret has a very bendy neck, I wonder how those muscles operate, I'm off to find out:)
ReplyDeleteGreat collection.
ReplyDeleteYour cat! Maybe he's trying to tell you something? ;) Pet me instead of spending time with the stamps.
ReplyDeleteYou found wonderful E animals today
