One with large bill after ruining a nice LP (7)
I believe the answer is:
pelican
'one with large bill' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both animals as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'ruining a nice lp' is the wordplay.
'ruining' indicates anagramming the letters.
'a'+'nice'+'lp'='anicelp'
'anicelp' with letters rearranged gives 'PELICAN'.
'after' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for pelican that I've seen before include "Aquatic bird - type of road crossing" , "Seabird with a large pouched bill" , "Large bird with pouch in bill for storing fish" , "Bird with large pouched beak" , "Large water bird" .)
