Nice one! I had DUMBO + ORCHID for starters, which quickly led to the official answer
Same.
A quick official, but very few birds: 🐦 DODO, RAIL 🐦🐦 GULL.
Oh, and GALAH.
Well, I found HAMBURG-GODCHILD, but scratching my head over HAMBURG. Some great finds today: HOLOGRAM, MARIGOLD, ALCOHOLIC, RHUMBA, IAMBIC, LUMBAR, DIABOLIC, ROADHOG, DIAGRAM, ALBUM, BUILD, CRUMB, CLOUD, MARCH.
Same answer.Falls into the category of playing with letters and astounded it’s accepted.
Aha – an alternative to hamburger, apparently. Like a whupper, perhaps?
That, & “a black variety of grape of German origin, specially adapted to hothouse cultivation” (see also https://letterboxedanswers.com/letter-boxed-november-27-2022-answers/).
Nice finds!
HAMBURG-GODCHILD was my solution, too.
Fooled around with CHARCOAL for a minute, too.
Oh yeah, I remember her from Sweet Charity. Marigold the taxi dancer, renowned for her Rhumba despite her not-so-secret drinking problem.

Big day for the Periodic Table with 8 elements found! 🙂
No solve for me today.
Stuck on COLUMBARIUM, with impossible letters left over.
I was too, but then found mudhog! [grin]
DIARCHAL – LUMBAGO 15/2, taking a tiny amount of pride in its originality -but not much else, tbh.
LBF score: 11 (8/12 letters rightly guessed). Going with
UAT SJH EOR FIB
next.
Dumbo oligarch.
Russian reference?
It was tough today. I thought there might be an element in the solution because of ium best I got was rhodium
Yes, me too. I was surprised the other day though when I realized that 81 of the 118 elements have the IUM ending. It looks like a couple more have just a UM ending, without the I.
lumbago – orchid
but I really wanted marigold to pair with something. 🙂
Lumbago and orchid
Lumbago Orchid
Official. Wow. After so much time!
Official here as well. So glad I found it.
Too busy to do LB Friday. Moving on to Saturday. Sorry I missed out – Lumbago is a long-time List word. (Pretty sure it showed up in an OA not too long ago. Ditto Orchid, though not in the same one.)
