Absent-minded person (12)

I believe the answer is:

scatterbrain

(Other definitions for scatterbrain that I've seen before include "Disorganised thinker" , "Person incapable of concentration" , "I'll forget" , "One who cannot concentrate" , "butterfly" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian and The Independent.
