Rejoices in beginning to get parrots (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

glories

'rejoices' is the definition.
(glorying is a kind of rejoicing)

'beginning to get parrots' is the wordplay.
'beginning to' says to take the initial letters.
'parrots' becomes 'lories' (lory is a kind of parrot).
The first letter of 'get' is 'g'.
'g'+'lories'='GLORIES'

'in' acts as a link.

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
