A group of turkeys?
My friend Tim and I were discussing turkeys on the FJR Forum, and I posted a picture from a recent ride on Tepusquet Road where I came across a group of turkeys. While I was composing my post, I searched for the official name for a group of turkeys on Wikipedia, which lists two: raffle and rafter. I flipped a coin, and settled on a raffle of turkeys for my post.
Tim did his own research, and found a more authoritative source that listed only rafter. I gladly conceded the point, and determined that the official name for a group of turkeys is hereby rafter.
Here's Tim's source: Group names for birds
