The Crimson Wing debuts with footage from Slimbridge
The million+ lesser flamingos at Lake Natron in Tanzania are the subject of a visually stunning new documentary film from Disneynature.
The Crimson Wing charts the life of a lesser flamingo from birth and follows its battle to thrive in the unforgiving environment of Lake Natron.
This exciting and thought-provoking film features amazing footage of a flamingo hatching - filmed at WWT Slimbridge back in spring 2007.
