    Twinkling Erica- (8) = STARLING

    (twinkling = star + "ling" is a type of "heather" which is also "erica")

    Cut off point (5)= SNIPE

    (Cut off = "snip" + E for East)

    Ganders mates(5) = GOOSE

    (gander = male, goose = female)

    Cowardly reaction (7)

    Sutton and Edgar Allen (6) = HOOPOE

    (Sutton HOO + Edgar allen POE)

    Headless Sir Lancelot with his pint (8) = NIGHTJAR

    ((K)night = "headless" Sir Lancelot + jar = "pint")

    Ring Loudly(7)

    Sounds like an extra layer (7) = MOORHEN

    (extra = "more", layer of eggs = hen)

    Not wane with fly (7) = WAXWING

    (wax is opposite of wane (moon waxes and wanes), + wing = fly)

    Reverse saint singularly (9) = TURNSTONE

    (reverse = "TURN" + saint = "ST" + singularly = ONE)

    And this one is also found in Bury St Edmunds (4)
