Sleepy Platypus Waving with Worm Friends

A cheerful platypus sits in the water, his eyes happily closed and a big smile on his bill. One fin lifts in a friendly wave, as if he’s saying hello to everyone swimming by. Long, wavy lines flow all around, showing the water swirling gently while he relaxes with his round belly resting on the creek bed.

Four stripey worms wiggle nearby, curving this way and that with curious faces. They float close, wriggling in every direction, as if joining the platypus for a swim. The whole scene feels calm and silly, with every character looking cozy and full of gentle energy.

Fun Fact!

A platypus is one of the strangest and most wonderful mammals on Earth, found only in eastern Australia, including Tasmania!
