A slaughter of crows have taken over the neighborhood. They are in every tree and rooftop and when they take to the air they blot out the sun. The noise is unbearable and when they are at rest they get silent . Then, as one, they stare at you with dead, menacing, beady eyes.

———
Etymology: Derived from the far older act of livestock-theft. Butchers received stolen animals because owners could no longer recognise their livestock after the animal had been slaughtered. Animals were very valuable commodities and a robber could potentially sustain a living from stealing livestock and selling them to butcher-fences. A ‘fence’ handler of stolen goods.
A slaughterhouse, hence abbrev. in slang to a ’slaughter’. See ‘slaughter’ used in the British TV series ‘Minder’
