Natural protection in Italy

800L : White Stork (白鸛) ; 1000L : Griffon Vulture (黑白禿鷲)
Italy (2001)
24th May, 2010. Roma

Honestly, I am very disappointed to this cover as originally I planned to send it by registered mail and postmarked by regular cancellation. However I think I better to give up to redo or make complaint of this situation, as I faced couple of times and Italy is not the first one. Above cover, featuring two different stamps were originally block of 4 of theme set Natural Protection in Italy issued on 2001. The set included 4 different stamps, two of them used on other cover (not shown) sent on 2007 and now only used the other two. Two stamps are not much interesting as they have shown in here before.

Italy has not been issued stamps about natural theme for a long time. Only seen their tight issue schedule in each years only related to history, heritage sites or monuments, famous people or brands and national events.
