Odd duck, maybe? (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

decoy

(Other definitions for decoy that I've seen before include "Something used to lure prey into a trap" , "Lure to trap game" , "'Lure, bait (5)'" , "Thing used to lure animal into trap" , "Kind of lure to tempt into trap" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
