An Orgy of Japanese Beetles
I thought it was pretty apt, and it made me smile. And then I remembered another that I'd thought of one morning when raucous Ravens were having an altercation:
A Riot of Ravens
I hope you will share some fun ones that tickle your fancy. If you don't have one, I challenge you to come up with one ...
Language is so much fun!

Japanese beetle orgies are a THING. lol. Saw a huge murder of crows in the field near our park. I mean hundreds of birds all in the same place. It was pretty awe-inspiring.
I remember tons of Grackles assembling in our trees in the Fall in MA. Maybe it's an Assembly of Grackles?
Those Japanese Beetles have no shame! Three times a day I walk around the yard with a jar of soapy water and catch them in the act! I know Buddhists say respect all life, but those Japanese Beetles... I just can't let them continue eating my roses. As Shelley would say... sigh. G
