In Halekulani Dusty Springfield found a nest (5)
I believe the answer is:
nidus
'a nest' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'in halekulani dusty springfield' is the wordplay.
'in' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'NIDUS' can be found hidden inside 'halekulani dusty springfield'.
'found' is the link.
(Other definitions for nidus that I've seen before include "nerve-centre" , "focus of infection" .)
