Sunday Stamps: Trees or Leaves

 Good day and welcome to my blog!

It's a nice sunny day in the American Midwest.  For the eclipse on Monday, we had only a few high clouds - perfect viewing weather.  What an amazing sight!

Anyhow, it's time for Sunday Stamps.  Our theme this week is trees or leaves.  I am going to bend the theme this week to stretch it to rose bushes:

An older Great Britain stamp -though I do not know how old.  Yes there are leaves in the stamp!

Sunday Stamps: The Sun

 Good Day, and welcome to my stamp blog.  Tomorrow is the great American eclipse, and my area of the American Midwest is in the path of totality!  I'll be busy in the morning but take the afternoon off, to watch the eclipse from my own backyard.

So: the theme today is the Sun.  The US Postal Service has not issued any stamps for this, unlike the Canadians.  So I am going to sneak in this stamp:

A hummingbird on a sunflower.  Hey, it's the closest I could get.  This is from a recently released booklet of stamps.  Each stamp shows a hummingbird and flowers.  The image here is from the US Postal Service.

Sunday Stamps: Flowers of Spring

 Happy Easter, for those who celebrate this holiday!

Good day, and welcome to my blog.  It is a cool cloudy day in the American Midwest, and time for Sunday Stamps.

The theme is varied: chocolate, bunnies, eggs, flowers, churches.  I have a set of tulip stamps from the US Postal Service:

These two images are from the US Postal Service - I don't have these in hand.

Spring has sprung here - happy Spring to those of us in the northern hemisphere.

Sunday Stamps: Green

 Good day, and welcome to my blog.  It's a cool cloudy day in the American Midwest, and it's time for Sunday stamps.

The them this week is Green, or Irish stamps.  I don't have any ready scans of Irish stamps, so green it is.

This is one of a set of Spring stamps released just yesterday.  Each stamp shows a hummingbird and flowers.  This is the greenest one of the lot, and the image here is from the US Postal Service.
