bevies
Gatherings of larks
Bevies is the plural of bevy, a group or collection.
The word originally described a flock of quails or larks, and this sense persists in hunting contexts.
More commonly now, bevy refers to any attractive or impressive gathering: bevies of beautiful women, a bevy of new products.
The word carries a slightly playful, old-fashioned tone.
