Wet beast experiences bliss (a very good scritch)

We watched this tiny platypus for a while, diving and feeding. Then it came out onto the bank, surprisingly bold, to have a scratch.

I'm obsessed with monotremes.

Platypus foods phase 1! You can see each platypus here ;) Phase 2 will be fruits too 😂 BUT I will branch out, though!

These aren't selling too well, which sucks cause I want to make more platypus themed items but can't because no one buys them 🫠. Originality doesn't pay-off 💀 oof
