Vietnam- Stamps and postcard

hi everyone- Happy New Year to you all and I hope it will


  be a year filled with plenty of flying birds.
Posted from Vietnam on 28-12-13, here's an interesting postcard and two recent bird stamps. I expect there'll be a few eyebrows raised  about the ducks

Singapore- Red Jungle Fowl & Grey Peacock Pheasant

To commemorate the 40th anniversary of Diplomatic relations with Vietnam, Singapore released this joint-issue pair of stamps on September 12, 2013 appropriately at  Jurong Bird park in Singapore. The Grey Peacock -pheasant (Polyplectron bicalcaratum) also known as the Burmese Peacock pheasant is the national bird of Myanmar. The Red Jungle Fowl (Gallus gallus) is said to be the ancestor of all domestic fowl. The image is cropped from a DL sized envelope posted to me  from Singapore.
