There is so much ancient history we (I) don’r know about. I looked up velvet scoter – this stamp was a great introduction but doesn’t do this duck justice. What a beautiful thing he is. /violet

I like to see “new” stamps. New to me, I mean 🙂 Except for the Finnish bird, which I have received several times. I love that design, anyway.
