2nd Edition Collective Nouns for Africa – a Wildlife Book
Have you ever wondered what to call a large number of creatures congregated together? This wildlife book is your answer,
When last did you see a Murder of Crows or a Flamboyance of Flamingoes? Have you bumped into a Generation of Vipers or a Bask of Crocodiles recently? It’s never good to try to outrun a Coalition of Cheetah or a Leap of Leopards. Make every attempt to avoid a Plague of Locusts, a Business of Flies or a Scrouge of Mosquitoes. An Implausibility of Wildebeest, A Skein of Goslings, and a Convocation of Eagles – I give you as a Wealth of Information to ponder until they become as clear an an Orchestra of Crickets or a Bloat of Hippopotami. When next you see a Tower of Giraffe, a Pride of Lions, an Obstinacy of Buffalo, or a Pair of Dik-dik, call them exactly that!
Every effort has been made to ensure the wildlife book is printed on eco-friendly paper, milled in a country against the exploitation of wild animals.
” There is something about safari life that makes you forget all your sorrows and feel as if you had drunk half a bottle of champagne – bubbling over with heartfelt gratitude for being alive.” Karen Blixen

About the Author
“This book is not simply a guide; it’s an adventure in itself! It leaps and crawls and whooshes with life. Each page pops with personalities. They rise from backgrounds that reveal their collectives and sounds and spores and poops and facts and figures. The author crafts with care, a full-on, safari experience that explodes off simple flat pages. This book captivates like the tower of giraffes and the opera of canaries that await us.” Linda van der Mey
Happy reading!
