“Of all the puzzles in the world, that scientists have tried to break, the greatest mystery of them all concerns Mount Gambier’s deep Blue Lake.  What secret trick has Nature used to give the Lake its vivid hue?  And what mysterious monster dwells deep down within that brilliant blue?  Is it a duck of emu size?  A giant wombat that floats and flies?  Or a frogman plummeting from the skies?  Many claim to have had a peep At the wonderous monster of the deep, But no-one knows whose guess is right For the Blue Lake keeps its secrets tight.”
