Weird corona that's seen by Americans at night (6)
I believe the answer is:
racoon
'seen by americans at night' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.
'weird corona' is the wordplay.
'weird' indicates anagramming the letters.
'corona' anagrammed gives 'RACOON'.
'that's' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for racoon that I've seen before include "Small ring-tailed American animal" , "Greyish-brown American animal with a ringed tail" , "Fur" .)
