My aunt, who visited from Germany from time to time, pointed out that, in
comparison with the birds of Europe, currawongs actually don't sing - they
just talk.
On that basis, I would suggest a Meeting of Currawongs.

Subject: Collective noun for Currawongs?
Have just been asked by a colleague for the collective noun for Currawongs
(ie 'murder' of crows, 'gaggle' of geese etc....)
All suggestions gratefully received....
Cheers,
Tom
