Bird that woman’s cooking (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

heron

'bird' is the definition.
(I know that heron is a type of bird)

'woman's cooking' is the wordplay.
'woman' becomes 'her' (her refers to a woman).
'cooking' becomes 'on' (I've seen this in other clues).
'her'+'on'='HERON'

'that' is the link.

(Other definitions for heron that I've seen before include "Grey or white long-legged wading bird" , "Large British wading bird" , "Big bird" , "flier" , "Wading bird with long neck and legs" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun and The Sunday Times.
