Avian claw (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

talon

'avian claw' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for talon that I've seen before include "Hooked claw; cards left after deal" , "one that grips" , "One hooked on bird" , "Eg, an eagle's claw" , "Sharp hooked claw" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sunday Times, The Times and the Universal.
