OP In our local paper this week, there was a photograph of a 'creche' of pelicans and cormorants, unusual because the two groups of young birds were clustered together, white pelicans and black cormorants. It was a biological curiosity.
I loved the soft sweetness of the term 'creche' for such groupings of birds and don't know whether the term is applied to other species as well.
