The sleepy coastal village of Bimbulla is nestled between rugged mountains and sparkling waters. Each winter, research scientist Digby Stuart waits for the wandering albatross to break its journey en route to the Antarctic, and to continue his studies of these majestic nomads.

Suddenly life in Bim is anything but simple.
