Kinematical and photometric studies of nests of interacting galaxies are described. Velocity fields of 22 nests were obtained using the 6-meter telescope of the Special Astronomical Observatory of Sciences Academy of USSR. UBV-photometry carried out with 125-cm telescope of Sternberg Institute has shown that the majority of nests is blue and undergoes intense star formation. Nests are found to be of different types:among them there are single SB and dwarf Irr galaxies with super-giant HII -regions as well as tight pairs and multiple systems of galaxies. Multiple systems classified as nests are shown to be dynamically stable.
