Small, tailless Aussie songbird starts to gently hover towards sash windows (9)
I believe the answer is:
skylights
'windows' is the definition.
(skylight is a kind of window)
'small tailless aussie songbird starts to gently hover towards sash' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'small' could be 'light' and 'light' is found in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for skylights that I've seen is " Ceiling windows".)
