TERMS FOR GROUPS OF ANIMALS, BIRDS AND
INSECTS
Ever wondered what the collective noun is for various groups of animals,
birds or insects? Here are
some of the obvious and not so obvious.
I would, however, like to point out that these terms have
not been officially "authenticated".
Some more terms for other species and the more
"unusual" suggestions can be found here.

Melissa
Bee.
Just in case there is anyone else out
there who, like me, doesn't know what a Bobolink is I have been
reliably informed by Amelia B., that it
is a small bird. The male is black and white with a yellow cap
on his head and the female is golden brown with brown markings.
Another name for a bobolink is a
whippoorwill***
(their call sounds a little like someone saying the word
whippoorwill).
Thanks to
Eric Pittenger for this additional information.
***
Apparently this is not the case.
Clarice
Olle has been kind enough to point out that the above is in fact
incorrect.
A bob-o-link (short for Robert
of Lincoln) is NOT the same bird as a whippoorwill.
This is confirmed on the site
at http://nationalzoo.si.edu/default.cfm
John Canepa as
also provided the following information:
Bobolinks and whippoorwills
are two different birds. The bobolink is a small-medium size bird
dwelling in open fields where it makes its nest on the ground and has one
of the most amazing and hysterical songs ever. The whippoorwill is
a medium size bird, active at night, with plumage so as that you
practically step on them as they rest on the forest floor. An interesting
note about the whippoorwill is that they will come to rest in a circle,
with their tails all facing in so that they can be protected from danger.
Susan
Vanderveen also confirms - I respectively submit the
information that a Bobolink and Whip-poor-will are not two terms for one
bird. They are two very distinct species.

Michael Haberl I have been
advised by Terry West that this can also
be a "LOFT" of
pigeons. I am, however, a little nervous about this one as I know
pigeons' living quarters are called a Loft. You
question a 'loft' of pigeons because a loft may be a pigeon's home.
Many creatures can be referred to in this way - cf. a dray of
squirrels; and I wonder if a cete of badgers is not, at heart, a 'set'
of badgers.

SEALS |
A HERD,

A POD of seals (a small herd) Leigh-Anne
Kolasinski advises that the term "rookery" is normally
used for the place where seals give birth rather than as a collective
noun. I have noticed that
many of the collective nouns featured on the various pages do in fact
refer to the habitat rather than groups but these terms are
notoriously difficult to authenticate; even the most prestigious
dictionaries do not feature them, presumably for that reason. I
am led to believe, however, that the The Oxford Dictionary and
Thesaurus (ed. Maurice Waite, 2007) shows this term as being a
collective noun. |

A DRAY*
or SCURRY* of squirrels.
* Melissa Bee
*
Laurel Parker has
pointed out -
"I believe the term "dray" of
squirrels is incorrect, since a dray is the name for a squirrel's
sleeping quarters, and most of the time there is only one squirrel
inhabiting a dray. At most, a dray would house a litter (2-4 babies)
plus mom but that is only twice a year.
Squirrels do use a buddy system when they can
and pair or triple up for safety ( this is not their mates but often
siblings or two weaker members of a greater community will buddy for
strength in numbers).
Any way you look at it, a dray doesn't hold much
of a group."
I did some research
on the subject and the term "dray" some appear to be the
popular choice, however, like Laurel, experts say that as squirrels
are fairly solitary creatures there is probably no need for a
collective noun.
I doubt if the lady
who sent in the photos featured on the following site would agree!
