Interestingly Sheba was believed to be in either Ethiopia or Yemen,
naturally your stamps has it as Yemen

I wonder where they're going to end up.

Reminds me of an Moroccan co-worker who claimed that the
best hamburgers are made from camel meat.

I remember him saying that there is just no comparison between a Big Mac and a camel burger.

I think (hope) Camels are well respected and prized in the East, LG
Let's hope they are off to Wadi Halfa for breeding duties.

I always thought that camels were a bit unruly to deal with, not having had any experience with them myself and going by what I have seen in the movies and TV.

You have to know your camels to get them to back up onto a little truck like that and sit still for a drive I would imagine.

What if they are breeding males and smelled a fertile female. That small truck wouldn't hold them back. Amazing pic indeed.

A nice tzatziki is probably just the thing for camel. We probably need a recipe thread.

A little more challenging is finding camels within a scene.



French Morocco 1932-34 Scott 127 5c brown red "Roadstead at Agadir"

This is a 24 stamp series with the Scott 126 3c dark brown sharing the same design.

Nice stamp,
Agadir = Berber for walled city or fort
Twice levelled by earthquake.

I am curious on how you post an image that is "untitled"
