From the Naming Debate

An Embarrassment

The wry one — a richness that almost overwhelms.

From the older sense of the word: an overabundance, a surfeit, a richness that almost overwhelms the person receiving it. An embarrassment of warblers is what happens when you bring binoculars to a spring morning and find more birds than you can name in the time you have. Dry, slightly self-deprecating, and entirely fond — naming the receiver's plenty, not the birds' fault.

The collection that earns this name is still finding its shape.
