It seems most animal group names either start with the same letter (gaggle of geese), describe the group (swarm of bees), or have some other strange insinuated connection to the creatures (murder of crows, or is it ravens?) Seems to me these group names aren't restricted to nouns,which makes it fun. Cloudburst of rainlilies is a good one! A congratulation of crocus (first flowers of spring for me) A taste of tulips (they remind me of candy) A dandy of daffodils (because they are just that) Words, they are fun to play with!
