One more than an eagle (6)

I believe the answer is:

birdie

(Other definitions for birdie that I've seen before include "One under par - watch it!" , "Golfing score better than par" , "Good hole" , "In golf, a score of one under par for the hole" , "One under in 20 across" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal.
