Tarsier, Bohol

PC3

Thanks to Mel Cole for this gorgeous postcard. Tarsier is the smallest monkey that can only be found in Bohol. I have seen one in person when we went to Loboc, Bohol. It’s is considered an endagered species. Tourist like going to Bohol just to see tarsier and perhaps hold them.

Amid the majestic mountain range of Mount Pulag National Park, man stands mesmerized its sharply rolling peaks outlined the profile of the Grand Cordillera Central revealing the highest peak in Luzon, located within the Philippine Cordillera Mountain Range.

The National Park covers an area of 11,550 hectares, hosting endemic inhabitants of rich diversity – the Philippine Brown Deer, Northern Luzon Giant Cloud Rat and the Luzon Pgymy Fruit Bat; dwarf bamboo plants, ferns, lichens and moss, a pine forest upon rocky slopes, marked by crystal waters. As we strive to lead the way in renewable energy, EDC takes to heart a humble reverence for the grandeur of God’s creation, and our role as responsible stewards of this great wealth.

Information found at the back of the postcard.

Oh my, it’s been ages already since the last time I participated the postcard meme. This postcard was from Kat of Mom’s Place, Davao. I love the glossy and colorful look of the dance outfit.

Picture Perfect | Map Postcard – Wisconsin

I’ve been very lazy posting postcard lately and to think I still have a bunch right here in the box that I need to post and share. I haven’t organized yet all my postcards. I just dumped them in the box all together. Anyway, here’s another map postcard that Hazel of Roving Keepsake. Thank you so very much Haze, most of my map postcards were coming from you. I am not sure anymore of I can complete my map postcards collection. It’s hard to send postcards on the mail during this cold season. I don’t have a driver because my husband’s work schedule sort of hectic and I have no plans of walking more that 2 miles under the freezing temperature.

Postcard Perfect | Map Postcard | Iowa “Hawkeye State”

I want to thank Hazel for the Iowa map postcard. As much as I want to collect map postcard of 50 state, it seems like it’s impossible because I have limited friends all over US. Thank to Hazel because she has access to all this map as they travel to this place once in a while. Hope you can visit her blog Roving Keepsake and leave a message or two.
