The barn swallow is one of the small birds with the greatest range of migration. It was chosen to represent the 8th Birdpex Exhibition which took place last weekend in Luxembourg. I was happy to get this card just now. And it was even signed by the exceptional artist, Johan de Crem, who did the stamp!  There is a woodpecker working on the logo!  |
