The definition is at the beginning of the clue.
How the clue works
The definition is Bird — the blue-footed booby is a seabird. Take BLUE meaning down or sad, which comes first, then FOOTED as in settled (like settled a bill), and finally BOOBY as in a kind of trap — you know, a booby trap. String all three together and there's your answer.
