River heron becomes awkward (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rhone

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'river' is the definition.
(I know that Rhone is a river)

'heron becomes awkward' is the wordplay.
'heron' can be anagrammed to 'RHONE'.
However, I am not clear how the anagram is indicated.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for rhone that I've seen before include "French wine region" , "European river and glacier" , "Fr. river and wine" , "River rising in Switzerland and flowing into the Mediterranean" , "River running from the Swiss Alps to the Mediterranean" .)
