The Singapore Botanic Gardens’ wetlands and lakes are the lifeblood for a community of exceptional wonders living in this UNESCO World Heritage Site. Filmed over a year in this urban paradise, we capture the ups and downs of the wild’s often unnoticed but captivating daily lives, from breeding to migration. We follow the seasons of life through the eyes of a whitebreasted waterhen who manages to evade predators but faces an even bigger challenge: courtship. And orphaned lesser whistling ducklings get a second chance, but life without a mother is challenging. When migration season arrives, winged visitors bring a riot of colour and a show of acrobatic displays.
