Bird noted for its sustained hovering while hunting (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

kestrel

(Other definitions for kestrel that I've seen before include "High-flyer" , "Falco tinnuculus" , "Bird of prey" , "Les, trek around the bird" , "It takes mice" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times and The Sunday Times.
