Pigeon post

In a way pigeon post could be considered the first form of airmail. Pigeons are still used to carry messages in some remote regions of the world where other postal options are not available, and pigeon enthusiasts also keep birds for the purpose of sending messages to other enthusiasts, keeping this ancient tradition alive. This is my entry for the Mail Art challenge at Three Muses.

Tania, your altered postcard is superb. I love the aged look you have achieved and the colours are scrumptious.

Stunning artwork.
