In Search of the Elusive Platypus | Lake Elizabeth – A Journey Through the Otways

#everydaylife #explorenature #gardendesign

The Otways' hidden secret.

“Photographing the Platypus at Lake Elizabeth is like chasing a ripple through mist — part patience, part luck, and part quiet reverence”

At Lake Elizabeth, deep in Victoria’s Great Otway National Park, I set out to find one of Australia’s most mysterious and elusive creatures — the platypus.

What started as a simple mission to see a Platypus in the wild at Lake Elizabeth became a journey of patience, light, and connection with nature.

Follow me as I trek through lush rainforest, record its sounds, and discover glow worms, mist, and the quiet beauty of this extraordinary place.

📍 Location: Lake Elizabeth, Great Otway National Park, Victoria
