This was up at Eungella NP inland of Mackay QLD KarenSaxton

How exciting! I have never seen a platypus before....even at a zoo!
Fantastic! Yay monotremes!
Thanks, normally they are in horrible light, this was tolerable.
Oh WOW! Awesome spotting!
Great capture Scott!
It looks like a work of art!
NICE ONE. Last time I saw a platypus in the wild was about 1990.
You got some great shots Scott :)
Thanks, this is the spot if you really want to see one. Everywhere else they take off but here they are pretty chilled.
Well done. They are so circumspect that they usually disappear the moment I see one.
Great cache scott,beautiful series,lovely animal,congrats and thanks for sharing
