Platypus in a Flowery Wonderland
Deep in a peaceful part of the wetlands, a curious platypus peeks out from a tangle of swirling vines and bright flowers. With a soft bill and paddle-like tail, this gentle creature is always on the lookout for new friends in its leafy hideaway. Color the leaves, blooms, and the shy platypus as you imagine what kinds of colors exist in this watery world. Maybe there are new plants and hidden surprises in every swirl.
FUN FACT
A platypus is perfectly adapted for its semi-aquatic lifestyle, spending much of its time in the water.
