They went viral in 2024, as people tuned in to a livestream of their nest to see if their eggs would hatch.

For Imperfect Paradise host Antonia Cereijido, the story became personal when she also began her parenthood journey. Antonia explores how our relationship to wildlife can help us better understand ourselves.
