Bird Groupings and words we are missing in our language. Danu Send a noteboard - 18/11/2012 12:48:16 AM
As modern English speakers, especially Americans we have lost much of our language particularly the poetry of the language. This makes me sad. In that vein I'm asking you to identify the bird that goes with the group name.

A bevy of
A bouquet of
A brood of
A building of
A cast of
A charm of
A colony of
A company of
A congregation of
A cover of coots
A covey of
A deceit of
A descent of
A dissimulation of
A dole of
An exaltation of
A fall of
A flight of
A gaggle of
A host of
A kettle of
A murmuration of
A murder of
A muster of
A nye of
An ostentation of
A paddling of
A parliament of
A party of
A peep of
A pitying of
A raft of
A rafter of
A siege of
A skein of
A sord of
A spring of
A tidings of
A trip of
An unkindness of
A watch of
A wedge of
A wisp of

I could only guess a few of these and would be very excited to see more words/language that are not used in modern English/American *you* feel are missing.

Why is there no Flock of Seagulls? *NM* - 18/11/2012 02:08:25 PM 150 Views
Because they broke up a long time ago and only had that one hit song. *NM* - 18/11/2012 03:39:55 PM 171 Views
