It's folklore that crows convened a congress to judge and punish members of the flock that caused trouble. Punishment was death, or murder. Therefore, a flock of crows is a murder(er).

The crows in my area hold a yearly congress along a row of tall fir trees. One by one they arrive and perch at the top of a tree. New arrivals are either allowed to land in a particular tree or not, and some are not allowed to land at all.
A crow that does not obey the rules is chased off by several others birds. This whole process takes around an hour, it's fascinating to watch.
