Retreat from sierra getting web coverage (4)
I believe the answer is:
nest
'retreat' is the definition.
(I know that nest is a type of retreat)
'sierra getting web coverage' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'sierra' could be 's' (phonetic alphabet: alpha, bravo, charlie etc.) and 's' is present in the answer.
'web' could be 'net' (synonyms) and 'net' is located in the leftover letters.
This accounts for all the letters.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
'from' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for nest that I've seen before include "secluded place" , "Bird's house" , "Structure built by birds" , "See 21" , "Stack of tables" .)
