cover from Belarus

On Saturday I got not only a postcard but also a cover from Belarus.

The cover is prepaid and was added with four stamps:
Wild Animals (from set of five) (issued 10-12-2014)
National Emblem (two from set of twelve) (issued 06-07-2016)


Inside were three written and stamped postcards.

The first card shows the Marc Chagall House Museum in Vitebsk. The Marc Chagall House Museum was opened in 1997 in the house where Marc Chagall spent his childhood.


Stamp:
National Emblem (from set of twelve) (issued 06-07-2016)
with a special Postcrossing postmark from Vitebsk


The second card shows a Great Snipe. The Great Snipe is a small wader, breeding in marshes and wet meadows with short vegetation in north-eastern Europe. It is a migratory bird and winters in Africa. The European breeding population is in steep decline.


On the backside is the special Postcrossing postmark from Vitebsk.
Stamp:
National Emblem (from set of twelve) (issued 06-07-2016)
with a special postmark about the Slavianski Bazaar in Vitebsk


The third card shows a Hawfinch. The Hawfinch is a bird in the finch family. It breeds in woodland and parkland with large trees across Europe and temperate Asia.
