Day 21 First Day Stamp Competition.
Australia has unique flora and fauna. It is predicted many of its species will have disappeared by 2050. In 1970 we had no thought for this when this stamp celebrated Sturts Desert Rose. If you travel the Sturt Highway you will not struggle to find it, however if you spend your life on the East or the West coast here it is recognised by Australia Post.
