Birdwatching verb sense: grammatical object

I note that the 1980 citation mentions "string a Skylark as a Richard's Pipit" (i.e. the real bird, the skylark, is being strung), while the 2005 citation mentions "trying to string a rarity" (i.e. the fake bird is the one being strung). This could justify subdividing into two senses. Equinox ◑ 17:39, 12 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
