I haven't cracked this one yet — but the brilliant team at Times for the Times have:
LA (I’m surprised), N (new), TERN (bird). This went in with fingers crossed as I didn’t know La! as an expression of surprise (SOED has it as archaic), nor LANTERN as the top of a dome, although having looked it up later I vaguely remembered meeting it before.
