Coined Words -- Was Congested Pedestrians

[Doug Harris]

...And in such Adirondacks villages as Old Forge it's quite common to
see, around dusk, deerdestrians -- right in the middle of the village's
main street -- in numbers that are endearing to tourists but pains in
the derrière to residents.

Crowdestrians -- a murder (or perhaps better, a mob) of crows
crossing the street at the middle of the block or against the light,
and holding up the automobile traffic.

I haven't ever seen this, but I have seen gaggles of Canada
goosedestrians locally.
