The hunter attempted to scare a covey of birds out of the brush they were nesting in, but the loud air horn he used served only to deafen his own ears.

I saw a covey of birds taking off into the air from the lake behind my house, but I feel like there should have been more of them.

Technically speaking, a covey of birds is still a flock, it’s just one that we identify as being rather small.

Some birds only travel in a small flock known as a covey, though why they do not take advantage of greater numbers is a mystery to me.

If you want to get very specific, a covey is a pair of mature birds that have a small number of babies with them.
