Sharks get long-tailed birds (9)
I believe the answer is:
thrashers
'sharks' is the definition.
(I know this)
I don't understand how the rest of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for thrashers that I've seen is " They flog".)
I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
