Since many years the Platypus is one of my most favourite animals. And every now and then a platypus reaches my mail box, all the way from Oz (and other countries).
Today I am happy to show you some of them.

Above the great amazing sweet Platypus, made thanks to Onions. Thank you Katerina!

Below the beautiful collage by Nicole Eippers:

And this Platypus collage I received from Laurel as a 'thank you' card for a postcrossing card I had sent her (of a hedgehog, another interesting animal, as is the echidna):

Feel free to add your Platypus, too!

And now I realize that I've never created a Platypus as mail art  (I've made 'usual' drawings and paintings but no postable ones so far :-).

So if there's anyone who would like to receive Platypus Mail Art from me, please let me know!

Heleen! I posted you a platypus mail recently and had NO idea they were your favourites! Hope you get it, it was in a flimsy plastic wrapper!!

A PLATOpus...because PLATO accompanied it to Sigean, but he is no where to be seen here.

Thank you, Heleen for blogging and sharing your Platypuses (?) Platypusoi...

Valentine in the Aborigine Settlement of Sigean received a PLATOous from Greece recently, too.

Yes, it is an onion-platypus,too...no tears shed however:

That would be great, looking forward to welcome un vrai Ornithorynque Français dans notre maison!

Thank you in advance!
Maybe I'll send you a, er, guinea pig, or cat (on paper), or a walking stick in return. Or a didgeridoo, I guess you do know how to get music out of this!

A French platypus will be coming you way soon from the Aborigine Settlement in Sigean, Heleen
