U.S. Postal Stamps to "Save our Songbirds" and "Stamp out Extinction"

The American Bird Conservancy (ABC, www.abcbirds.org) announces the
first U.S. charity postage stamps to support wildlife conservation.  The
new stamps feature illustrations of the Cerulean Warbler and
Ivory-billed Woodpecker.  Each stamp carries a face value of 39 cents
and they can be used for regular U.S. postage.  The stamps are available
through the ABC web site at (www.abcbirds.org), and are being
distributed by (Zazzle.com).  Twenty-seven percent of the net proceeds
from all stamp sales ordered through ABC's web site will contribute
directly to bird and habitat conservation programs, including land
purchase in the Saltillo Savanna region of Mexico to protect the
Worthen's Sparrow and key migratory bird species.  - Gavin Shire,
