Learning is the key to personal growth, and personal growth is how we stay young at heart and limber of mind. But if you’re lying in bed, unsuccessfully trying to fall asleep, when you suddenly remember that bananas are berries but strawberries aren’t, and the utter insanity of that fact can only torture you while you try to remember why, you might be a little miffed at us for sharing these 11 useless facts that we hope will delight you (though probably not at 3 am).
#1: A group of flamingos is called a “flamboyance.”
What else would you logically call a group of pink birds that stand on one leg, striking a pose? Why, a “flamboyance” of course! Other fun bird group names? A murder of crows. A Parliament of owls. And this one is too fun (though not birdly) to leave out: A “bloat” of hippos. Hehe.
