Love bird (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

duck

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'love' is the first definition.
(love and duck mean zero in tennis and cricket)

'bird' is the second definition.
(I know that duck is a type of bird)

(Other definitions for duck that I've seen before include "sporting failure" , "Dip" , "strong cloth" , "strong fabric" , "Part of pair" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun and the Evening Standard.
