Welcome to my collection. My topic is birds and I collect mostly covers but I will show you a variety of philatelic material that is part my collection.

Good morning! Today, let's start with Albania and the Egyptian vulture (Neophron pecnopterus) on a stamp issued in 2022. It is a small-sized bird. It has three subspecies that can be found in parts of southern Europe, Africa and Asia. It is a migratory species and it feeds on carrion, faeces, insects found in dung, eggs, plant material and occationally small animals. It uses tools to e.g. break eggs. It is endangered.
