Footpad Dec 2016 10:02am, 27 Dec 2016 6,034 posts	0 Footpad A whole 'murder' of Jackdaws in the road outside the house today. I presume that is the right noun as they are a part of the crow family?
Footpad Dec 2016 10:02am, 27 Dec 2016 6,035 posts	0 Footpad Well well the collective noun for Jackdaws is: clattering Very apt

GlennR Dec 2016 10:28am, 27 Dec 2016 23,846 posts	0 GlennR Four cormorants today, in flight as well as on the wires. Probably trying to warm up. Most of those collective nouns were made up by some nutter. It is of course a load of bollocks (see what I did there?).

Red Squirrel Dec 2016 5:47pm, 27 Dec 2016 19,653 posts	0 Red Squirrel I saw a long-tailed tit out of my kitchen window v close up. Lovely. I suspect there were others with it as it flew off. The great tit that roosts in the hole in the house opposite was watching me as I looked out of the same window. I walked off so it could go to its roost in peace.
