There are actually a number of words for a group of flamingos. Most people would, of course, use flock. Flamboyance seems to be the second most common choice. Other terms include pat, stand, regiment, and colony.
A group of bears is called a sloth or a sleuth.
Albatross = Rookery
Tigers = Streak or Ambush
Vultures = Kettle
What do you have??

Sounds right, but do different groups of dogs have different names??
Now I'm interested.
BTW:
A group of cats are called a clowder.

Not sure.
I told my husband I wanted a grumble of pugs.
He told me if I get a grumble of pugs he will give me a packet of papers from a lawyer.

As interesting as this is, you’ve got to wonder, who thinks this shite up? Like, is there some guy, or group of guys, who’s only job is to name groups of animals?

I want to be a kitchen appliance namer. All you do is say what it does and add 'er'.
Kitchen Appliance Naming Institute:
"What's this thing do?"
"It keeps shite fresh."
"well, that's a 'Fresher'... I'm going on break."
