Delights about English bouncing babies? (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

joeys

'bouncing babies?' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'delights about english' is the wordplay.
'delights' becomes 'joys' (I've seen this in another clue).
'about' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'english' becomes 'E' (abbreviation).
'joys' going around 'e' is 'JOEYS'.

(Another definition for joeys that I've seen is " Young kangaroos in Australia".)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
