Malaysia (2005)
13th April, 2015. Pusat Mel Butterworth, Pulau Pinang
After received a cover with complete set Migratory birds of Malaysia on 2009, here is another cover with souvenir sheet.
The dunlin is a small wader, sometimes separated with the other "stints" in Erolia. It is a circumpolar breeder in Arctic or subarctic regions. Birds that breed in northern Europe and Asia are long-distance migrants, wintering south to Africa, southeast Asia and the Middle East. Birds that breed in Alaska and the Canadian Arctic migrate short distances to the Pacific and Atlantic coasts of North America, although those nesting in Northern Alaska overwinter in Asia. Many dunlins winter along the Iberian south coast.
