This list of terms of venery (the collective name for a group of animals) is often pleasantly alliterative and even quite poetic at times.

@restlesslens James Lipton's An Exaltation of Larks is one of my favorite trivial reference books.

@restlesslens Thanks for sharing this. Convocation of eagles is one of my favorite next to murder of crows. Why are hawks considered renters is beyond me tho.

@davextreme wow that looks fantastic!! Thanks for the recco

@pratik I really like “committee of vultures.” It’s weirdly evocative.
