This has a distinct look of Dick Bruna's work
Japan has a "letter writing day" on the 23rd of each month to encourage people to write and send letters to friends and loved ones to counteract the trend of digital communication. And to help the cause, there are numerous stamps dedicated to this. I wish we could adopt this (in light of our current postal situation in Canada, and the cries of "who gets mail anymore, anyway").About 5,000 km away from Japan is Nepal and this black francolin of the pheasant family. It is considered 'of least concern'
Another country that is about 5,000 km from Japan is Nauru. Once occupied by Japan (during WWII), it is the 3rd smallest country in the world. It's highest elevation is about 213' above sea level and there are no rivers, but judging by this stamp it might have magnificent sunrises (and presumably sunsets)

Both are great stamps. That Nauru always makes me smile, because Nauru means laughter in Finnish!
Nauru and Nepal, I don't have stamps from either of those places! What a pretty bird.

I like the angel standing on a cloud above Nauru.
My N is here
The Japanese stamps are so cute! I, too, wish that other countries adopted the same cause. The francolin stamp is beautiful and the word francolin is really cute!
