Eagle, bear, bats in Nice? (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

agreeable

'nice?' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'eagle bear bats' is the wordplay.
'bats' is an anagram indicator (slang for mad).
'eagle'+'bear'='eaglebear'
'eaglebear' anagrammed gives 'AGREEABLE'.

'in' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for agreeable that I've seen before include "delightful" , "Pleasant, pleasing" , "Cordial" , "In harmony; pleasant" , "Willing - nice" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
