Typical Tuesday.  Just perusing lists of names referring to groups of animals.  You know, like flock of seagulls or a pack of wolves.  But what if a bunch of domesticated cats approached me, and I wanted to tell people about it?  Apparently, it’s called a clowder of cats.  A coalition of cheetahs.  A mob of emus.  A business of ferrets (that sounds terrifying).  A charm of goldfinches.  A bloat of hippopotamuses.  A mischief of mice.  A gaze of raccoons.  A fever of stingrays.  A gulp of swallows.  Who names these?!  It’s gotta be so fun to name all of these.  But seriously, when will I ever come across a chain of bobolinks?  I can’t even recognize one bobolink! 

P.S.  It’s a bird.  CHAIN of BoboLINKS.   I want to name animals!

P.P.S. I have huge aspirations.
