Somebody help me. What is the collective noun for a group of King parrots? I'd suggest a squabble of parrots because that's all they were doing. They seemed mostly uninterested in my offer of a millet spray. They just chose my balcony as a spot to argue amongst themselves. A few headed off to feed on the nearby conifers and pittosporum.

@stgm@aus.social I have no idea but feel compelled to share what your query reminded me of: Higgledy-piggledy unparliamentary green parrots quarrel outside in the trees Squawking out epithets uncomplimentary Squads of unmannerly Oversized peas.

@stgm@aus.social I like 'a prattle of parrots'.
