In rural Wales, Helen, an amateur bird watcher, investigates the apparent suicide of a 'rare bird' named Emrys. Helen's inner life is slowly revealed through a mixture of naturalistic detail and phantasmagoric occurrences. "Dark and full of life, like soil... [Swain's comics are] a perfect example of what modern comics are capable of if only they try." - Alan Moore.
