Good day and welcome to my stamp blog.
I am participating in Sunday Stamps. The theme this week is Asia. I have a stamp from China, that I shared once a long time ago:
A stamp from my Postcrossing days. Great architecture, lovely design.

Good Day, and welcome to my contribution to Sunday Stamps.
Once again I have searched the internet for stamps, having none in hand for today's theme. But I found this great set:
Fallingwater is an amazing house by Frank Lloyd Wright. I am less familiar with the other buildings. I have not visited these buildings, but would be happy to visit Fallingwater some day! This set really fits the theme, does it not?

Good day and welcome to my Sunday Stamps post!
I was away at a lake cabin last weekend because it was Labor Day weekend, enjoying time with family. No internet there! But I have a set of stamps for the theme today: Art/paintings.
I purchased these stamps when they came out, about 2010 or so. American Abstract Expressionists:
The Jackson Pollock stamp is especially large. These stamps take up a lot of a postcard, or an envelope!
I admit I obtained this image off the internet, as I used all of these stamps long ago.

Hello and welcome to my entry for Sunday Stamps. I did not participate last week as I only had a stamp of a spider, which our hostess does not like.
Anyway, onto endangered species. I have shared this stamp before but it is very appropriate for today.
As I wrote a few years ago:
This is a pretty bird with a sad story behind it. This is the Azores bullfinch. Its species name is Pyrrhula murina, and it is endemic (meaning it is found only there) to the islands of the Azores, a small archipelago of islands in the North Atlantic that belong to Portugal.
Not only that, it is endemic to one island only, São Miguel Island.
Not only that, it is found only in the forests of the mountains in the eastern part of the island.
It likes the native laurel forests, and it is threatened by deforestation and the growth of non-native species.
In 2003, it was estimated that there were only 400 individuals left. However in 2008 it was estimated that there were 775 individuals left, so there is some hope.
