How to handle more than 1 collective noun

edit

penguin (L40789) has many plurals or collective noun forms. 1 for a group of penguins on land = WADDLE. Another for a group of penguins in the water = RAFT. And still others like ROOKERY, COLONY, HUDDLE. How best to handle this on penguin (L40789). And could we please add it as an example case to show others?
