Ar y Stryd Fawr

Murmuration of Starlings, A

£8.99

A flock of birds, even a skein of geese perhaps – but a clete of badgers or a grist of bees? The collective nouns of animals and birds have long inspired and intrigued us. Many have their roots in medieval times, in particular applied to those creatures hunted by man, and subject to the etiquette of their proper group names.
