User's notes
At first I thought movement in water was a rakali but noticing how long they were submerged changed my mind. Weather was grey and foggy and the distance made it difficult to get anything decent image wise. Editing photos at home I realised this was very possibly a platypus. Returned again today but no sighting this time.
