Well I’m cooking a 24lb bird stuffed and the dressing, sweat potatoes with apples and pineapple, string bean casserole and homemade mashed potatoes. The better half is making a cranberry relishing with mandarin oranges, diced greed apples and crushed pineapple. She is also making a nice fresh broccoli salad.

The largest recorded nested bird roast is 17 birds, attributed to a royal feast in France in the 19th Century: a bustergophechideckneaealckideverwingailusharkolani ne - bustard stuffed with a turkey, a goose, a pheasant, a chicken, a duck, a guinea fowl, a teal, a woodcock, a partridge, a plover, a lapwing, a quail, a thrush, a lark, an ortolan and a passerine. Since passerine is a generic term, it is not known exactly what kind of bird was used as the smallest in the actual roast, although a pied flycatcher has been suggested. The recipe notes that the final bird is small enough that it can be stuffed with a single olive; it also suggests that, unlike modern multi-bird roasts, there was no stuffing or other packing placed in between the birds.
I think this is what that is.
