The queue came up for a postage stamp with a face value of 5 kopecks of the USSR, which shows - Grey Crowned Crane (Balearica regulorum).

For my publications, I do not use stock photographs, it is fundamentally important for me to use photographs that I have made with my own hands for publication and I can name them - authorial work.
