Snowy winter fun sledging down hill. Making a snow lantern, ooh I thought what is that? So for anyone like me wondering, here are two cute kids making one here

| 2004: Winter Birds (Design - T Niemi) |
The birds, like us, are glad that winter is retreating. but on the stamps it is still winter - Great Tit and Yellowhammer. Then we have the Pine Grosbeak, common in Scandinavia but if one of these is spotted in the UK it would lead to a twitching frenzy the last one to make the watery crossing showed up in the Shetland Islands a few years ago. Striking birds, as indeed is the Bullfinch
Sunday Stamps theme this week is - Winter Snow - See It On A Postcard
Lovely stamps - the Swedish 2008 Christmas set is amazing, and of course the northern lights are amazing.
ReplyDeleteI like the set from 2008, esp. the snow flake design in the background.
ReplyDeleteLove the idea of a snow lantern! And the birds a so striking - especially the pink of the grosbeak.
ReplyDeleteI was expecting to see an aurora borealis today.
ReplyDeleteWe never have snow enough to make a snow lantern, but I've enjoyed the link. So fun! :D
