Ever think about certain animals and wonder, what do you call a group of them? I mean, everyone knows a bunch of cattle is a herd, bunch of birds (in general) is a flock, but how about a bunch of ferrets? Elk? Foxes? And so on?
Well, I was wondering that just now about ducks, as I had a picture with a bunch of them I took at the park.
Doing some searching, I came upon this handy reference site http://www.npwrc.usgs.gov/about/faqs/animals/names.htm (http://www.npwrc.usgs.gov/about/faqs/animals/names.htm)
It's pretty got some pretty interesting facts. For instance, did you know a group of bats is a colony? A group of tigers is a streak. A bunch of penguins is also called a colony and a group of lawyer is called Target Practice.
So, anyway, it's a neat site, you should check it out!
