skookum orca whale stamp by bruce bowden stamps

COUNTRY:
Skookum

DESIGN:
Some years ago, my kids and I went up to Johnstone Strait for a sea kayaking expedition to see the Orca ( killer whales ). This is mailed from where we put in at. The legal stamp shows a cormorant, birds common to that area of Vancouver Island. The postmark, it turned out, added a sense of motion to the painting. Yahoo !

MAILED:
by me from Port McNeill, British Columbia in 2006
