Perfect cover from Falkland Islands

I received my first cover from Falkland Islands, with perfect selection of stamps. Cover was sent from Stanley, capital of the Falkland Islands. It is located on the island of East Falkland, on a north-facing slope in one of the wettest parts of the islands. At the 2012 census, the town had a population of 2,121, and the entire population of the Falkland Islands was 2,841.

Stamps on cover: 
Peale's Dolphin, (from set Marine Life) issued on 09.11.2012.
Asperitas, (from set Clouds) issued on 08.12.2015.
Long-tailder Meadowlark, (from set Small Birds), issued on 14.08.2017.
Folkland Pipit, (from set Small Birds), issued on 14.08.2017.
Black-chinned Siskin, (from set Small Birds), issued on 14.08.2017.
Cobb's Wren, (from set Small Birds), issued on 14.08.2017.

There is also one stamp at the back:
Tussacbird, (from set Small Birds), issued on 14.08.2017.

Inside was this postcard with view on Port Stanley and the distant hills of Tumbledown, Two Sisters and Mount Kent.


Thank you very much Wolfgang!
