Episode Notes
Hello to you Tania Marien of TalaTerra listening in Riverside, California!
Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is 60 Seconds for Wednesdays on Whidbey.
I love language. And I love the delight with which language celebrates the Animal Kingdom. Here on Whidbey we have quite a few creatures large and small.
A Murder of Crows
A Cast of Sparrows
A Coronation of Terns
An Unkindness of Ravens
A Murmuration of Blackbirds
A Scurry of Squirrels
A Flame of Eagles
Romp of Otters
A Cauldron of Bats
A Parcel of Deer
A Mischief of Mice
A Whisker of Cattle
A Gaze of Raccoons
A Congregation of Plovers
A Parliament of Owls
A Charm of Hummingbirds
Maybe where you live there is :
An Embarrassment of Pandas
A Gang of Elk
A Shiver of Sharks
A Pride of Lions
A Streak of Tigers
A Sloth of Bears
A Troop of Baboons
A Shrewdness of Apes
A Dazzle of Zebras
A Shadow of Jaguars
A Flamboyance of Flamingoes
Question: What else can you add to this magnificent list?
