This piece of art I got from Netherlands. It's from Samuel Goldwyn's movie called Porgy and Bess. The movie has made at 1959 and it's genre are musical, drama and romance. I have never seen the movie but imdb gives it scores 7,3/10 !

Tämän taideteoksen sain Hollannista. Kortti on Samuel Goldwynin leffasta Porgy and Bess. Elokuva on vuodelta 1959 ja genrenä draama, musikaali ja romantiikka. En ole itse koskaan nähny kyseistä elokuvaa, mutta imdb:n mukaan olisi hyvä (7.3/10) !

Busy May

It has really been very busy May! But fortunately I have my holidays in June. At Friday I got a postcard from Netherlands. The photos name is "Nose to Nose" by David Trood. Thank you Marisca!

Kiireinen toukokuu on ollut! Nyt kesäkuussa pääsee onneksi lomailemaankin. Perjantaina sain postikortin Hollannista. Kuvan nimi on "Nose to nose" ja sen on ottanut David Trood. Kiitokset Mariscalle!

Bird, bird, bird, b-bird's the word

It's Spring and bird migration is currently in progress. Birding is one of my hobbies and it's really rewarding entertainment! I recommend it to everybody :)

Se olis kevät taas ja lintujen muuttokin käynnissä paraikaan. Lintujen bongailu on yksi harrastuksistani ja täytyy kyllä myöntää, että se on ihan äärimmäisen antoisa ajanviete! Kaikille voin suositella lämpimästi :)

Everybody knows this bird, it's White Stork (Ciconia Ciconia). It's the bird which brings babies :) I received the postcard from Elsje from the Netherlands. Here in Finland had been seen some of White Storks, in Helsinki and Siuntio. Thank you Elsje!

Kaikkihan tietävät tämän linnun, kattohaikara! Siis se lintu, joka tuo vauvoja :) Korttihan tuli Hollannista asti Elsjeltä, kiitoksia vaan tästä! Suomessakin on muutamia jo bongailtu mm. Helsingissä ja Siuntiossa.

This postcard I got from Poland. You can see the the Long-eared Owl,
Common Kestrel and Barn Owl. Great stamp, too :

Tämän korttisen sain Puolasta. Kuvassa näkyy sarvipöllö, tuulihaukka ja tornipöllö. Makia sählypostimerkki kans:

And last but not least:
Viimeisimpänä, mutta ei suinkaan vähäisimpänä:

Poor parrot :(
Raukka pieni papukaija :(

Have you notice the news of baby parrot Nelson? 
Alla on linkki vauvapapukaija Nelsoniin uutiseen...

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2130993/Meet-Nelson-baby-parrot-ugliest-bird-world.html

"He has a face that only a mother could love.
But sadly for poor Nelson, his didn't.
The parrot chick, who must surely be a contender for the ugliest bird in the world, was rejected by his parents after he hatched.
However, he can at least take some comfort in the knowledge that he will one day grow up to be an attractive Kea parrot.

Nelson, who has been described as looking like a cross between an alien and a roast chicken, was born last month at Bergzoo in Germany. 
He was the only one of three eggs laid by his mother to survive and hatch, but was promptly rejected by his parents.
As such, the youngster is now being cared for around the clock by staff and spent the first four weeks of his life in an incubator.
Keas are large parrots native to the alpine regions of New Zealand that are known for their intelligence and curiosity.
Adults are mostly olive-green with a brilliant orange flash under their wings."

Good luck to you baby bird!

Marilyn and the others

Hello again! No, I'am not dead even the eternity has passed since the last time. I have had so much schoolwork. And now I'am actually sick :( Only flu...

So, the Christmas is coming :) But here in Finland aren't snow. How Santa can come if there's no snow?? Okay, I stop. Here's the postcard:

The postcard is from Saskia (thank you!) and on the cover you can see Marilyn Monroe, Pippi Longstocking (Peppi Pitkätossu in finnish), Superman, Cleopatra (but who is the actress?), Michael Jackson and Mona Lisa. I have to admit that I adore Marilyn Monroe. She was so beautiful!

Greenpeace

Jessica from the Netherlands has sent this Greenpeace postcard at August 2011. On the postcard you can see a starfish and some soft corals that Dutch have there at the sea :) 
On the stamps reads: Denk groen doe groen. I put the sentence on the google and it's something like "think green, do green"?? I think that those stamps really reflects our culture just now, in nowadays. Because everybody talks about green values and it's great.

Hollantilainen Jessica on lähettänyt tämän Greenpeacen postikortin tämän vuoden elokuussa. Postikortissa näkyy meritähti ja pehmeitä koralleja, joita on Atlantissa. Postimerkeissä lukee denk groen doe groen ja kun googlasin sen, niin vastaukseksi tuli tyyliin ajattele vihreästi, tee vihreästi. Nuo merkit todella kuvastavat tätä hetkeä ja tätä maailmaa missä elämme. Jokainen puhuu vihreiden arvojen puolesta ja se on tottakai hienoa.

Heineken

I'am a big fan of ad-cards. And this Heineken Beer ad-card is really a great addition to my collection! Heineken International is a Dutch brewing company. Heineken ranks as the 3rd largerst brewer in the world with an annual beer production of 139.2 million hectoliters. Thank you so much Rickster!

Tykkään paljon mainoskorteista ja tämä Heineken-mainoskortti on hieno lisä kokoelmiini. Heineken on hollantilainen panimoyhtiä ja tuotantomäärältään maailman kolmanneksi suurin panimoyhtiö.
