marabou

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'net large bird' is the definition.
'marabou' can be an answer for 'bird' (marabou is a kind of bird). I am unsure of the 'net large' bit.

'in myanmar about to' is the wordplay.
'in' indicates a hidden word.
'MARABOU' can be found hidden inside 'myanmar about to'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for marabou that I've seen before include "Large African black-and-white stork" , "bird" , "Fine white, raw silk" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
