Coming from peak it evades bird of prey (4)
I believe the answer is:
kite
'bird of prey' is the definition.
(kite is a kind of bird of prey)
'coming from peak it evades' is the wordplay.
'coming from' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'KITE' is hidden in the letters of 'peak it evades'.
(Other definitions for kite that I've seen before include "It's flown in the wind at the end of a string" , "A flying toy or sea bird" , "plane" , "Bird of prey - light, wind-borne structure" , "Wind-borne frame" .)
