    had been thinking grouse for biddies or some other hen but with the extra clue think the bird part is more likely coots. as for the grouping...

    :)

    This is the first time I got the right answer for a word riddle! :lol:

    I'm feeling pretty smart at the moment!!! :D

    Really great puzzle tiger lily!

    Congrats on your first solve then! & thanks ^_^

    I blame smoking for leaving me with bad taste.

    I appreciate Poe, but only through works like the Oblong Box and Silence--a Fable. It turns me off to hear people quote the Raven...

    :offtopic: Nevermore? :P

    (Sorry, I had to or the voices were going to be angry with me.)

    Parliament of rooks

    Team of ducks

    Correct for the 1st, but still off on the 2nd. (That one may require a thesauraus - I had to use one to find a more difficult synonym.)

    Edit for: That leaves 8, 9, & 10 remaining.

    Glad you're wanting to add to the Den Finix, but please remember to run a search for riddles that aren't your own - this one has been posted many times before. That said, hope you continue riddling with us. :)

    & Unicorn, the spoiler tags require brackets - [ ] (& correct spelling, oops!) to work correctly. You can also use the button in the reply frame - it's the blue box with an S in it. Just type in a title and your answer & click ok & it will do the coding for you.

    Muster of Peacocks?

    Yes indeed-y!

    Game of Swans?

    Wake of Vultures?

    Gosh, I feel so smart! I actually feel like I may have something right!

    Well MiKi, since you are quite smart, it's not surprising that you have 1 right ... the 1st one. Have to try again on #9. :)

    A colony of bats? or vultures?

    No to all those.

    Thanksgiving Dinner (U.S.) - resulting in a "food coma"

    1. Pardon me, please. I'm roasted.

    2. Floury, waxy, squished till I've popped.

    3. You could say I'm amazing, Colonel.

    4. Shove it. (ahem)

    5. Put me in a boat & I'll paint the whole thing.

    6. Jack & spice & a nerdy number make me a little tart.

    1. Turkey - pardoned yearly by the U.S. President, usually baked/roasted or deep fried Thalia

    2. Mashed Potatoes - floury &/or waxy types of potatoes, cooking causes the starch granules to swell & release amylose, mashing damages the granules more (too much = gluey potatoes, eew!) LumpySpacePrincess

    3. Corn - aka maize, & kernels are the form of the edible portion (Yes, this is a lousy POW. I'm not PG.) LumpySpacePrincess

    4. Stuffing (aka dressing, if it wasn't cooked in the bird) - A turkey is stuffed from the "aft" end DudleyDude

    5. Gravy - 'gravy boat' used to serve, some people put gravy on everything on their Thanksgiving plate DudleyDude

    6. Pumpkin Pie - jack-o-lantern (pumpkin), with spices (& cream & eggs) + pi, which can be served as a tart Plainglazed

    figured maybe I can address this one. first thought was Derby pie as that's about the only thing I would mix my Old No 7 in other than ice but with the spice bit, gonna go with Mince Meat Pie? ooh, ooh, strike that. could be I have the wrong jack? - pumpkin pie! (or maybe I just dont know jack)

    Got it with the last one there!

    2. Mashed Potatoes

    3. Corn

    6. Pumpkin Pie

    Welcome to the Den ... hmm, should I call you LSP, spacey, princess ... (You've given us too many possibilities here.) ;) Anyhow, welcome & enjoy!

    You do, indeed, have the rest of the meal there.

    Excuses & credits will have to wait till morning-ish (PST), till then night y'all. :)

    Ohhhhhhh, I never knew that green beans were that sacred! Wow! ^_^

    Okay, fine, but I'm going to go enjoy some

    Christmas songs because I'm strange like that

    :)

    But please don't shoot me. I'm innocent because I've never treated Mr. Green Bean that way.

    Oh, and sorry for not hiding the Christmas thing, I just realized that probably gave riddle away.

    :duh::blush:

    Sacred, no. Just not one of my favorite vegetables, but if you mistreat them I WILL tell you that you murdered them and now they're useless.

    - after all, you aren't right.

    :ph34r:

    (& I'm lazy & don't care ... this is supposed to be a quick one anyway!) ;)

    2. Green beans?

    early for Santa and his reindeer!

    :P

    If that's what you do to that vegetable, (& I mean this in the nicest possible way) you should be shot. You have to play nicely, treat them like delicate flowers, otherwise you end up with gross mush. :unsure:

    And yes, it is. (It's my riddle, so there's no use arguing.) ;):P

    A Sweet potato or maybe Peas, but not sure.

    How have you been TL?

    You may be on the right track there, but neither of those is right.

    (& been doing pretty good mostly, how about you?)

    Now I'm thinking about Christmas......... :mellow:

    2. Cranberry sauce?

    6. Pie? (pi, lol)

    No the 1st, & in the neighborhood for 6.

    too early for that kind of talk!

    :blink:
