Wow, I never knew any of that. The extent of my knowledge was "flock", haha. Do you know if there are any special named for groups of parrotlets or lovebirds? I think that would be a real treat.
I wonder where all these words came from. Who decided to call a bunch of nightingales a "watch"? How long have these been in use? Why don't people use them more often, I think they'd make a great addition to our vocabulary?
