But it would’t surprise me if half or more of the folks that said got it either didn’t or looked it up

Yeah, must be an old person thing.

Don’t get it

You're kidding.

I bet this is probably correct after I did some searching and found it, including the OP pic. Who's going to be the first to call it?

Could two still be considered a group though?

Two is a jury.

2 waiting on 3. Is an attempt

I read the book

im still lost

Me too

The term "murder of crows" is a poetic way to describe a group of crows that originated in England in the 15th century. It's based on folklore and superstitions about crows and their association with death.
Explanation

Folklore: Some folklore says that crows hold trials to judge and punish other crows that have broken the rules. If found guilty, the crow is executed, or "murdered".

Superstitions: Some people believe that seeing crows is an omen of death.
Scavenging: Crows are known to scavenge on carrion and corpses, which has led to an association with death and decomposition.
Battlefields: Crows would have had easy access to food on battlefields and gallows.

"Murder of crows" is a collective noun, which is a specialized term used to describe a group of animals. Other examples of collective nouns include:

Parliament of owls: A group of owls, which are considered wise
Gaggle of geese: A group of geese, named after the sound they make
Ostentation of peacocks: A group of peacocks
Knot of frogs: A group of frogs
Skulk of foxes: A group of foxes


Apparently three is the required minimum for a 'murder'. Hence having only two would be an attempt. Three would make sense if they are truly judging another, as you would need 2/3 to have a majority.

THANK YOU QSYB

Yep

In order to have a murder of crows, you have to have probable caws.
