German woman has time to get bird (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

gannet

'bird' is the definition.
(gannet is a kind of bird)

'german woman has time' is the wordplay.
'german' becomes 'g' (abbreviation).
'woman' becomes 'anne' (woman's name).
'has' says to put letters next to each other.
'time' becomes 't' (abbreviation).
'g'+'anne'+'t'='GANNET'

'to get' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for gannet that I've seen before include "Sea bird; greedy person" , "greedy type" , "Proverbially greedy seabird" , "Greedy person (colloq.); seabird" , "Large diving fish" .)
