Bird-nesting

Let's go bird-nesting.

They [the boys] all had catapults […]. In summer they used to go fishing and bird-nesting.

An unusual, but not unheard of, setup called bird nesting is when children stay in the house and the parents take turns moving in and out.

He should feel lucky I agreed to test out this bird-nesting custody arrangement this month. It was a huge inconvenience for me to have the kids staying full time in the house while Mark and I traded time living there.
