Outback bird (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

emu

'outback bird' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for emu that I've seen before include "Aussie bird" , "Large Australian flightless bird" , "it'll never fly!" , "that doesn't get off the ground" , "Hull's character" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal, the USA Today, The Star Tribune, the LA Times, the Universal, the Penny Press, the Newsday, the King Feature Syndicate and The New York Times.
