Bio
I'm an old, short, fat, unsightly, grouchy, reformed troll with a bad attitude and a cricket bat. ---------------------------------------------------- I need to state clearly that English is not my first language. There are upwards of 600,000 words in the English language. In my native language there are a mere 11,000 and most of those are entire concepts (kind of like the theory of relativity) rather than words which translate individually. ----------------------------------------------------- Free advice: Don't.

I got a MURDER of crows but that is about it. Wow What a list. Ill check back tomorrow. Thanks.
Crows were the only one I knew too . . . .
Seems that A Murder of Crows is the only one we all know. I wonder what that says about us?!!!

I've come across a half dozen of them recently too. I'm ashamed of me for not remembering at least one more.....
.

Republicans should cover it for all I just wouldn't give them animal status maybe slime or pond scum.............o/e
Ha, these are a puzzle, Mrs Raptor. I don't know any them...except: an obstinancy of my relatives (of course, I suppose I'm part of their group, too...) :)
Zanelle... it is a murder of crows... I thought for sure someone would "get" a Parade of Elephants though.

hi desert... we do put some odd names on groups of animals.

Skye... they were harder than they looked. Did you know there are at least 8 different types of animals who form pods?

Algis, a bevy of quail...

O/e... slime and pond scum are both plants...

*PEERS @ Clay* Are ya sure you aren't one of MY relatives?

Darla... it was much more difficult than I thought it would be.
