October 7. “Button, what would you call a group of crows?”

“Group!”

“No. A group of crows is called a parliament or a murder of crows.”

“That’s a difficult one for me to answer.”

“You’ve learnt something new today. Now, what would you call a group of ants?”

“Tell me. I don’t have a clue.”

“A group of ants is called an army or colony. I’ll ask you a simple one now. What’s a group of asses called?”

“Herd.”

“Correct. The next one I’m going to ask is a very interesting one. It’s okay if you don’t know this one. What’s a group of apes called?”

“Can’t tell.”

“A group of apes is called a shrewdness of apes.”

“Shrewdness? That’s very unusual.”

“What’s a group of butterflies called?”

“Is it swarm?”

“Correct. Another beautiful word is rainbow.”

“That’s very beautiful.”

“What would you call a group of cockroaches?”

“I don’t know.”

“Is it because they intrude?”

“May-be. I’ll wind up with a simple one which you’ll have the answer to. What’s a group of pigeons called?”

“Flock?”

“Correct. Some like ‘colony of ants’, ‘murder of crows’ and ‘intrusion of cockroaches’ have not been officially authenticated but I felt like mentioning them to you anyways.”

“I’ve learnt some new stuff today. Thanks for educating me.”
