Nope - don’t get it. Please someone explain. Be gentle and don’t flame me for being stupid.

 

A group of crows is called a murder of crows, like a herd of cowes etc no idea why

 

Thank you Sir for explaining. Now you mention the rationale, it does vaguely ring a bell.

Sorry for being too dim witted to have not remembered without a good prompt.

There are some odd names.

An unkindness of ravens make all Corvids and evil as Covid.

 

My favourite is a charm of goldfinches. Fits the birds so well.....

 

A wisp of snipe is one that always sticks in my head from my shooting days

 

Have you ever smelt a Raven? They stink!

 

Thats their asbo tag for plotting murder

 

I’m simple, my methodology of counting animals goes:

One
Two
Many/Lots

Still, I’ll always shout SQUIRREL instead of Scurry no matter how many of the bastards there are.

There's a Tex-Mex restaurant in Austin, Texas, The Arroyo Cafe, that's known for their marquee sign slogans. Here are just a few...

 

And a few more. Evidently El Arroyo has been doing this for for years and there are even collections of photos of their signs in several books that are available on Amazon!
