The birds... A great throng of birds has come. They swarm now, so numerous that their presence is starting to become disquieting. Their wings flap and bang dryly against the panes of the little house. From the chimney, noises filter down; agitated cheepings, and the clacking of beaks against stone, against flesh. A few feathers flit about in the darkened air, while right beneath the windows, a duck, its feathers iridescent with rain, hobbles along towards his pond.

Then, since the hare had come, of course the rabbits did the same; they cannot help aping him. They upset everything, nibbled every cake, chair leg and table corner, brushing by everyone with their soft, soft backs. The winter sun shines on a cloud of ivory fur.

Thanks to the indications found in a chapter of Lewis Carroll which we alone know about, we were able to locate a hidden entrance leading to Wonderland. Here is what we found upon arriving on site.
