Everglades bird (5)
I believe the answer is:
egret
'everglades bird' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for egret that I've seen before include "white fish eater" , "One of a pair of waders" , "Bird eating fish" , "Mainly white heron" , "Type of forty eight Ac" .)
