Some bemused birds (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

emus

'birds' is the definition.
(emu is a kind of bird)

'some bemused' is the wordplay.
'some' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue (some of the parts of the word are used).
'EMUS' can be found hidden inside 'bemused'.

(Other definitions for emus that I've seen before include "Largest native Australian birds" , "Running birds" , "Aussie birds" , "laboratory units" , "Muse about flightless Australian birds" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
