Flighty type gettin' dressed? (5)
I believe the answer is:
robin
'flighty type' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I don't see how one could define the other.
I don't understand the rest of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for robin that I've seen before include "Batman's helper" , "Red-breasted songbird" , "Bird, killed by Sparrow" , "Day was one" , "Popular British bird" .)
