Postcard from Finland.



Finland’s national bird: whooper swan.
The whooper swan (Cygnus cygnus) is a graceful, northern, pure white, wild swan that features in Finnish folklore and culture, from the Kalevala folk epic to the works of composer Jean Sibelius.
Finnish euro coins feature a pair of whooper swans in flight .
Thank you Auli for the elegant postcard with nice stamp.
