Platypus Among Swirly Flowers

A plump, cheerful platypus sits at the center of the page. His bill is wide and round, and one eye glimmers with a friendly spark. Soft little claws reach up, ready for a day of exploring, while his flat tail stretches beneath him.

All around, leafy vines curl and twirl in playful loops. Two blossoms peek out, their petals spread open as if waving hello. The platypus looks right at home among the whirls of nature, waiting to be brightened with every color of the rainbow.

Fun Fact!

When a platypus dives underwater, these grooves close up tightly to protect its eyes and ears.
