Around noon, yawners slipped home for a bevy (8)
I believe the answer is:
swannery
'home for a bevy' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'around noon yawners slipped' is the wordplay.
'around' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'noon' becomes 'n'.
'slipped' indicates anagramming the letters.
'yawners' with letters rearranged gives 'swanery'.
'n' placed inside 'swanery' is 'SWANNERY'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for swannery that I've seen before include "Where pens may be productive" , "Wildfowl sanctuary" , "Place for breeding waterfowl" , "Place where large birds are kept or bred" .)
