Louisiana's state bird (7)
I believe the answer is:
pelican
'louisiana's state bird' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for pelican that I've seen before include "Seabird with a large pouched bill" , "Tropical bird" , "In place (anag.)" , "Its beak holds more than its belly can" , "In place for large-billed bird" .)
