My first postcard from Indonesia. The stamp is part of a m/s issued in 2008. The other half of the m/s does not show a bird. Southern Cassowary (Casuarius casuarius) ia a large flightless bird. It lives in the tropical rain forests of Indonesia, New Guinea and northeastern Australia. It feeds on fruit, shoots, grass seeds, fungi, small vertebrates and invertebrates. It is a threatened species.
