States Project | The Hawkeye State


Sometimes is fun how the postal machines add the postmarks. Not so fun when they do not respect those old stamps!

(Have you seen that the ice cream capital of the world is in Iowa?!?)




Curious that they name the "American goldfinch" on the postcard, and the "Eastern goldfinch" on the stamp as the state bird. According to Wikipedia, the second is a subspecies.
