Groom elaborately (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

preen

'groom elaborately' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for preen that I've seen before include "Groom elaborately" , "Tidy/clean (feathers)" , "Beautify" , "Clean with the beak" , "demonstrate pride" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
