On a damp and misty Sunday morning on 9th September, 47 intrepid (and chilly) volunteers arrived at their assigned sites before dawn on a mission to search for platypus.

This was the date of the 13th annual MCCG Platypus Survey, an initiative driven entirely by volunteers which contributes to a University of Queensland platypus PhD project.
