More than one flier cries with energy in decline (7)
I believe the answer is:
shrikes
'more than one flier' is the definition.
(shrike is a kind of bird)
'cries with energy in decline' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'energy' could be 'ke' (K.E. is an example) and 'ke' is located in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
