Estonian Fauna - Cormorant

The cormorant (Phalacrocorax carbo) is a masterful diver and a key guardian of ecological balance, often mistakenly considered an invasive species. However, it has inhabited our waters since the Stone Age. In its distinctive posture – wings spread wide – it dries its feathers after underwater fishing. Celebrate the year of this elegant and significant bird with a special stamp and share the beauty of Estonian nature with your pen pals!
