Collective Name?

[maggiebee]

Not sure if there is a collective name for a group of starlings? Anyway, I have a "squabble of starlings" fighting on the fat ball holders at my back door. There must be at least 20 young starlings and what a racket they make; great to see though.

[sandyRoe]

is it a susurration ?

[sandyRoe]

Squabble describes them well, too.

Various names such as, chattering, clattering, cloud, congregation, murmuration.
I like a murmuration of starlings.

I've always known it as 'murmuration' for a flock of starlings in flight before roosting, and a 'chattering' once they've gone to roost, but haven't yet shut up!

[boxtops]

Murmuration when they move about in huge flocks, but squabble sounds good!

[maggiebee]

Thanks for your answers folks. All sound fine, but with the racket they're making I think I'll stick with squabble.
