Hi Strands fans. I must say, today’s theme of “We’re in this together” really doesn’t give much away. In fact, I only cottoned on to what it meant when I accidentally grabbed SWARM in the top-right corner while looking for clue words for the section above.
When I saw the word “group” spelt from left to right, I figured it might be part of the spangram. Sure enough, I was able to expand it to read GROUPNAME. I now knew it was about animal collective nouns, and SWARM was about bees or locusts.
That meant I was able to get SCHOOL (fish) immediately above the spangram, and FLOCK (birds) in the top-left corner. PRIDE (lions) completed the top half of the grid.
Moving onto the bottom half, I found PACK (dogs) in the bottom left, followed by KNOT (frogs) directly above it.
Two were left, intertwined in the bottom right, and decoupling them took me a while. Eventually, I spotted HERD (various mammals) which left COLONY (ants) to complete the puzzle.
