The stamp above belongs to a mini-sheet commemorating the eighties. One of the stamps depicts naturalist and broadcaster Félix Rodríguez de la Fuente, very well known at that time for the highly successful series El Hombre y la Tierra ('The Man and the Earth'). On this stamp, he carries a baby lynx in his arms.
More lynxes I have got (although I had not realised until today):

Lynx are beautiful creatures. In my imagination they are always padding silently through a snowy forest.
ReplyDeleteThey must be stealthy creatures.
DeleteAgree with Joy ...they're so beautiful and so instantly recognisable with those ears.
ReplyDeleteBut I have never seen one in person!
DeleteLynx are lovely, small but mighty creatures. It took me a moment to find the one that Felix is holding. (and cool that his name is felix!)
ReplyDeleteRight about the name :)
DeleteWith those pointed ears they always seem so alert.
