Highly artistic philatelic work. Series fauna Birds EUROPE LITERA Z.

For Ukrainians, the stork is a holy bird, which, according to belief, has features and habits inherent in people. In the popular imagination, he is a symbol of work and devotion. Where he puts his bucket, that house will be lucky, and if he is offended, he can burn down the house. In Ukraine, birds and animals were not called by human names. However, an exception was made for storks: "Anton, it will bring warmth."
Nightingale is a singer of kindness and love, a symbol of spring and will, high inspiration. Its name comes, as linguists believe, from the Old Russian word "slavy" - the one who sings a song of praise to God. Ukrainians have long revered this little bird for its wonderful singing.
