What does FLOCK mean in Scrabble?
noun
A group of birds, sheep, or other animals that move, feed, or rest together.
A flock is a gathering of animals of one kind acting as a loose unit, most often birds or sheep, though the word extends to any crowd that moves together. By extension a minister's flock means the congregation under their care, treating a body of worshippers the same way as a shepherd treats sheep. The related verb describes people or animals coming together in just this way.

Common in everyday speech about animals and, in a more formal or religious register, about a congregation.
- A flock of geese flew south for the winter.
