Call for Mail Art: Weird (existing) Animals! Platypus, Tapir, Okapi, Echidna, Mole, Axolotl are some of my favourite animals. They have in common that they exist irl and that they are uncommon.

No jury, no fee, no return. All weird existing animals will be published in this ongoing virtual exhibition.

Eva (11)
As a child I was fascinated by the Dodo, since I saw a picture in the Animal Encyclopedia my grandparents gave me when I was about ten years old. Later in childhood I had a board game about threatened wild life all-over the world, and every time we played it, I hoped to travel to Mauritius, where this interesting bird was living and I could pick up the Dodo fiche. Well, this weird bird alas had been extinct in those days already. But in our hearts he/she lives on.
And in the movie 'The Pirates'.
And thanks to Eva I got even a new, colourful picture of the Dodo!
She added a postcard of twittering budgerigars / parakeets. Thank you very much, Eva, for these cheerful pictures!
