Atingle, seeing French birds (12)
I believe the answer is:
greenfinches
'birds' is the definition.
'atingle seeing french' is the wordplay.
'seeing french' can be anagrammed to 'GREENFINCHES'.
Though, I'm unsure how the anagram is indicated.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Everyman puzzle in The Observer.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
