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.

Issued in 2010, this pair of stamps features the migratory black-faced spoonbill (Platalea minor), a vulnerable species found in coastal eastern Asia. It feeds on small fish, shrimps, frogs, insects and plant matter. Here, it is depicted in its winter plumage as it lacks the yellow markings present on its neck and rear side of its neck, which are characteristic of its summer plumage.
