Cracking the Code: “Engulf bird in the air” (7,2)

Ah, the thrill of the hunt! That moment when you stare at a crossword clue, the words dancing in front of your eyes, and your brain starts to hum with possibilities. Today’s challenge is a doozy – “Engulf bird in the air” (7,2). This cryptic clue has got me scratching my head, but I’m determined to crack the code.

Let’s break it down. The first part, “engulf,” immediately suggests a verb – something that encompasses or consumes. The “bird in the air” seems like a straightforward reference to a flying creature. But what’s the connection?

Is it a bird that is known for its swallowing ability? Perhaps a bird of prey with a powerful beak? Or could it be a bird that is associated with something that engulfs, like a storm cloud?

The “7,2” indicates the answer is a two-word phrase, making things a little more complex. This could be a common phrase or idiom that cleverly hints at the bird and the act of engulfing.

My mind is racing with potential solutions. I’m visualizing birds, thinking about verbs related to engulfing, and searching for common phrases that connect the two.
