Catch sight of Cinders dancing (7)

I believe the answer is:

discern

'catch sight of' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'cinders dancing' is the wordplay.
'dancing' indicates an anagram.
'cinders' anagrammed gives 'DISCERN'.

(Other definitions for discern that I've seen before include "Recognise, find out" , "Cinders (anag)" , "Notice" , "Make out, distinguish by eye" , "Perceive - distinguish" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
