Hi Phillip
 
It was definitely a cooperative group. They arrived together, travelled together. Sat around on local shrubs and trees together. The calls were, as you rightly gathered, what I would describe as adult calls, much like the carolling they tend to do in large flocks in winter.
 
My reference to a "squawk" of Baby Currawongs was perhaps misleading. I was seeking suggestions for a collective noun for a group.
 
Cheers
