Much as different birds have different names for their flocks, such as a gaggle of geese or a murmuration of starlings, the size of the grouping also has unique adjectives. A murder of crows can range from first to third degree, and a groping of tits can be gentle or ravenous depending on how many tits, titmice or chickadees are present.
