A Female Bird With Reticulate Tarsi

A female bird with reticulate tarsi, an extended neck and feathered lores, another of the same, followed by a male of the species. In which direction and to what place do you desire that I randomly meander? Ascending a flight of steps; descending a flight of steps; entering the partitioned area of the domocile which has been designated for the nocturnal retirement of the woman of the house. When you arrive (and not before, mind you), you will assuredly locate a container accomodating several fluid ounces of a dry, white wine hailing from the sixteenth or seventeenth century, and also in that room will be a root of an Asiatic herb with pungent aromatic rhizomes.
