I thought you also mentioned (c) a bunch of things such that at some
time for all of them, each of them is a flying albatross.

But if you are going to introduce time in a sentence that doesn't
necessarily bring it up, shouldn't you also consider space?

(d) a bunch of things which is at some point in space a bunch of
flying albatrosses
(e) a bunch of things each of which is a flying albatross at some point in space
(f) a bunch of things such that at some point in space each of them is
a flying albatross

Arguably nothing could be an albatross at a single point in space, but
by the same token nothing could be flying at a single point in time.
