The Enchanting Language of Wildlife Groups
When was the last time you saw a Murder of Crows or a Flamboyance of Flamingoes? (And if you did, were you in a Hitchcock movie?) Have you encountered a Generation of Vipers or a Bask of Crocodiles recently? It’s never wise to try to outrun a Coalition of Cheetahs or a Leap of Leopards. Make every effort to avoid a Plague of Locusts, a Business of Flies, or an Intrusion of Cockroaches. (Nobody wants uninvited guests like those!) Picture an Implausibility of Wildebeest, a Leap of Leopards, and a Cacophony of Hadidas – truly a wealth of information to reflect upon!
