A new image is doing the rounds and there is supposedly a crow hidden somewhere in it, but only a few can find it.
If you’re anything like me, then the rest of your day is about to be completely derailed as you stare at this image.
Every time someone tells me I can find something I have to sit there and find it for myself without any help.
Don’t worry, I will give you a helping hand with this particular image but I won’t reveal all of the secrets until after you’ve had a go.
The challenge is simple: can you spot the crow in just five seconds?
If you are able to, then you need to change your career to something where your eyesight is better utilized.
Right, before you read any further, be warned that there are spoilers.
If you struggled to spot the crow, direct your attention to the top right corner of the image. Perched on one of the bare, weather-beaten trees, the bird blends seamlessly with its surroundings.
At first glance, it could easily be mistaken for a leaf protruding from a branch.
Don’t make the mistake that one person made, as they described their error on Reddit: “I accidentally read cow instead of crow and was like, ‘There’s no way there’s a cow in here…'”
Easily done.
If this has got you wanting some more, then luckily there is an entire Reddit forum full of them.
In this next one, you simply have to spot the snow leopard. Easy, right?
The image, originally shared on Reddit’s ‘FindTheSniper’ subforum features a group of Himalayan blue sheep resting on a rocky cliffside.
However, a snow leopard is also lurking in the scene, camouflaged so well that many viewers are second-guessing its existence.
One Reddit user admitted defeat, commenting: “I can’t find it. Do I need to get my eyes checked?” Another asked: “Is it cheating to enlarge these to solve?”
For those who did manage to locate the predator, its stealthy disguise was a source of amazement.
One user remarked: “So well camouflaged,” while another joked: “That’s some great camo right there, I’d definitely be dead.”
The striking photograph was taken by award-winning explorer and wildlife photographer Inger Vandyke, who originally posted it on Facebook in 2015.
She captioned it: “Spot the wild Snow Leopard! Somewhere in this shot a Snow Leopard is sitting waiting to attack a Bharal (Blue Sheep). Can you see him?”
Following renewed attention on social media, Vandyke engaged with curious viewers, saying: “Thanks everyone. What is really surprising in this image is the Bharal are completely unaware of the leopard being there,” adding that the predator was ultimately unsuccessful in its hunt that day.
For those still struggling to find the well-hidden snow leopard, a hint: focus on the center of the image and slowly trace upwards.
