Fishing?


I do not get that often stamps from the United Nations in Geneva.  This one belongs to the 2024 United Nations Endangered Species. It celebrates the Itaituba river stingray (Potamotrygon albimaculata), illustrated by Brazilian artist Julia Izabela.

It was on the back of a postcard sent by Bryon. It arrived together with another postcard from the same sender, bearing the following stamps, featuring close-up photographies of popular Freshwater Fishing Lures!

  2. I have never seen a stingray in waters near my home. I did see some in Texas though! Interesting creatures!
