Bird to lug seal about (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

seagull

'bird' is the definition.
(seagull is a kind of bird)

'lug seal about' is the wordplay.
'about' indicates anagramming the letters.
'lug'+'seal'='lugseal'
'lugseal' anagrammed gives 'SEAGULL'.

'to' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for seagull that I've seen before include "One sitting atop mast perhaps" , "Avian scavenger" , "Main creature" , "Marine bird" , "Bird paradoxically fond of landfill sites" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
