USA: Giant Pandas at Zoo Atlanta

On Thursday I got four postcards: two from the USA, one from Macedonia and one from Russia.

One of the cards from the USA shows Giant Pandas at the Zoo Atlanta in the State of Georgia. The Zoo Atlanta was opened in 1889. In 1999 the first Giant Pandas, Lun Lun (female) and Yang Yang (male), arrived in the zoo as loan from China. In 2006, 2008 and 2010 Giant Panda cubs were born in the zoo. In 2014 twin pandas were born in the zoo. They are called Mei Lun and Mei Huan and are both female.


With nice stamps:
North American Wildlife - River Otter (from set of fifty) (issued 13-06-1987)
The War of 1812 (issued 13-09-2014)
75th anniversary of Batman (from set of eight) (issued 09-10-2014)


Thank You very much Susan!
