Evita 's touring cast feel caring, delivering flyer (9,6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

peregrine falcon

'flyer' is the definition.
(type of bird)

'evita 's touring cast feel caring' is the wordplay.
'evita ' becomes 'peron' (nickname of Eva Peron).
'touring' means one lot of letters goes inside another (touring can mean going round).
'cast' indicates anagramming the letters (letters are dispersed or cast around).
'feel'+'caring'='feelcaring'
'feelcaring' is an anagram of 'egrinefalc'.
'peron' enclosing 'egrinefalc' is 'PEREGRINE FALCON'.

'delivering' is the link.

(Other definitions for peregrine falcon that I've seen before include "She kills small creatures" , "bird?" , "up in the air?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
