During breaks scatter bread for birds (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

redbreasts

'birds' is the definition.
(redbreast is a kind of bird)

'during breaks scatter bread' is the wordplay.
'during' is an insertion indicator.
'breaks' becomes 'rests' (resting is a kind of breaking).
'scatter' indicates anagramming the letters.
'bread' anagrammed gives 'dbrea'.
'rests' placed around 'dbrea' is 'REDBREASTS'.

'for' is the link.
