USA- Bald Eagle on meter

The Bald Eagle has been the national symbol of the United States of America since 1782. The first postage stamp featuring the bald eagle was issued in 1938 and since then there have been numerous stamps, postal stationary items and meter cancels with images of the eagle. Here's is a current Postalia  franking meter featuring the eagle in an unusual upright stance.

Morocco- Northern Bald Ibis

From a special friend who sent this cover while on holidays in Marrakech, North Africa. I know the postmark isn't very clear but the registration label is so I'm adding it here as its from an unusual destination.
From a 2012 4v set of fauna, which included a bird stamp of the Northern Bald Ibis -(Geronticus eremita)
