Those are some great ones, Jacki. I had never heard of a "flink" before, and I'm sure I never will again.

I've always loved "a murder of crows" and "an unkindness of ravens."

I think there's a funny name for penguins too but can't remember what it is.

Interestingly, almost everything that isn't just a normal term like pack is either really cool and imaginative or outright funny. The variations aren't dull or pedestrian at all.

this is all I found:

There is no specific name for a group of penguins, however a group of penguins in the water is often called a raft because they "raft" together.

We need more names for groups of people.

Like a group of poker players or OOT readers for instance.

And I'm sure there's got to be some collection of people that could be described as "a yabba dabba" or "a yabba dabba doo" of something.
