Bird from SA (4)
I believe the answer is:
crow
'bird' is the definition.
(crow is a kind of bird)
I don't understand the remainder of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for crow that I've seen before include "Black bird; brag" , "one often getting stoned!" , "Brave" , "Express gleeful triumph" , "Make sounds of pleasure as a baby does - or a bird" .)
