Smile  Bird's Plurality: Describing Groups of Birds
I discovered this list of a way to describe birds in groups, something we normally don't know unless your a bird watcher, or someone who follows bird patterns and studies birds. Some of these I had heard before, most of them being the game birds, but one would think there must be a group name for a bunch of parrots. lol

There goes:
A siege of herons or bitterns

A plump of wildfowl

A gaggle of geese

A skein of geese (flying)

A badelyng of ducks

A sord (or sute) of mallards

A spring of teal

A company of widgeon

A cast of hawks

A bevy of quail

A covey of partridges

A muster of peacocks

A covert of coots

A congregation of plovers

A desert of lapwings

A wish (or walk) of snipe

A bazaar of murres (guillemots)

A flight of doves or swallows

A murmuration of starlings

A exhaltation of larks

A watch of nightingales

A building of rooks

Now it's your turn, do you know the plurality of the birds you own? If so please share it here.
