The Elwedritsche are mythical creatures believed to live in the Southwest of Germany. Often described as being birdlike but with antlers and scales instead of feathers, there are really very little bounds to the imagination. In Neustadt an der Weinstraße a whole dissimulation of Elwedritsche can be seen frolicking in the waters of a fountain, getting themselves wet and everybody who cares to stand close to them.

I picked the word dissimulation from a collection of collective nouns for birds. It seemed appropriate.
