This is a touching tale of a very brave duck named Whetu. The little blue duck is a survivor-he manages to hatch beside the river when all the other eggs are washed away, and he overcomes a lot of adversity to survive into adulthood. Then through his call, he helps a stranger who is lost in the mountains find her way home. But when Whetu's natural habitat is threatened, who will help save him?
