The Birds of Iceland

The Gyrfalcon below is connected to a Notebook with 23 photos of Icelandic stamps that show a sample of the bird life of Iceland.
A little information on each bird is also in the Notebook. See if you can discover them all by passing your mouse pointer over the Gyrfalcon and clicking when the pointer changes.
All the stamps in the notebook are by the artist Þröstur Magnússon, Iceland's premier stamp designer.
As some browsers do not support Imagemaps a direct Link is below the Map.
