Winger in hurry after touch on both wings (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

thrush

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

'winger' is the definition.
(thrush is a kind of bird)

'hurry after touch on both wings' is the wordplay.
'hurry' becomes 'rush' (synonyms).
'after' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'touch on both wings' becomes 'th' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'rush' put after 'th' is 'THRUSH'.

'in' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?
