Last Monday I got three postcards from Austria.
One of them shows Chanterelles. The Chanterelle is a species of mushroom growing in Europa. Due to its characteristic colour and shape it is easy to distinguish from mushrooms with potential toxicity and is typically harvested from late summer to late fall. In Austria and also in Germany the Chanterelle is among the most popular edible mushrooms. In Austria it is called Eierschwammerl, while here in Germany they are known as Pfifferlinge.
A wonderful matching stamp (issued 28-08-2020) with its special postmark was used on the card. This is supposed to be the first stamp in a series about Austrian mushrooms. The definitive showing a herbarized lady's slipper (issued 15-01-2008) was used as well.
Thank You very much Anita!
