Great new "Pollination" stamps

I went to the Post Office today and found these great new Pollination stamps.

From the press release:

Depicted on the Pollination stamps are four wildflowers and four pollinators. The common and scientific names of the featured flowers are purple nightshade, also known as chaparral nightshade (Solanum xanti); hummingbird trumpet (Epilobium canum); saguaro (Carnegiea gigantea) and prairie ironweed, also known as common ironweed (Vernonia fasciculata). The common and scientific names of the featured animal pollinators are Morrison’s bumblebee (Bombus morrisoni); calliope hummingbird (Stellula calliope); lesser long-nosed bat (Leptonycteris yerbabuenae) and Southern dogface butterfly (Colias cesonia).

They are neat, and will definitely educate children about pollinators. Its funny this is the second garden stamp post for the past few days-and I have been planning one for a while, just egtting around to doing the photos.
