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.

My final post for tonight is a cover from Grand Rapids, Michigan with the complete 2024 Garden Delights set. All four stamps show the ruby-throated hummingbird (Archilochus colubris). This migratory bird can be found in eastern North America and Central America. It is sexually dimorphic with males being smaller than females and having a slightely shorter bill. Males also have a red throat in contrast to females. They feed on nectar, insects and spiders.
