Collective Nouns, Birds.?

Question

A friend and I were talking about collective nouns, Murder of crows, flock of sheep, parliment of owls ect. He says there is a (warning slight swear word here) Bastard of something but he can't remember what. It might be crow or raven but we can't find it and we have looked everywhere. Does anyone know?
