Observed it's mottled (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

spotted

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'observed' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'it's mottled' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)

(Other definitions for spotted that I've seen before include "- Dog; - dick" , "Caught sight of; dotty" , "Saw; mottled" , "Espied" , "Dappled - saw" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
