While you did, of course, use the term 'aggregation' correctly...I
just love words used to describe groups of things.

As a group of geese is called a 'gaggle'; a group of vultures is
called a committee or a venue.  Vultures circling in the sky are
called a kettle of vultures.  Perhaps because they look rather like
the liquid funnel created when stirring a pot?

My favorite word for a group of these birds is 'wake'..."A wake of
vultures."

Sounds like this wake was followed by a very large (and fast)
procession.  Heh, heh, heh.   Gallows humor?  Nah, I just like words.

Musta been cool to see so many...at my age, I'd have been nervous!
LOL
