A few buckets and a cormorant

Here's some buckets ready to go to Cornwall. Is that a group? - a collection? - a gaggle? - there must be a good collective name for buckets. . . 

In the photo of the single bucket bag, you will see a small black speck to the left - this is actually a cormorant drying his wings in the morning sun. He (it must be a 'he' - I'm sure the girlie is off doing something productive) has been on that post on quite a few morning photo sessions and doesn't seem to mind the mad woman and her bags.
