IF you think you’re an expert puzzle solver then try and spot the baby chick hidden somewhere among the friendly sheep.
This fascinating optical illusion is one of the most challenging yet as only those with a high IQ and 20/20 vision even stand a chance of spotting the little chick within seven seconds.
The picture shows a busy field full of cheeky sheep all gleefully playing around.
Some are sat on fences as others can be seen leaping around and picking up flowers.
Butterfly’s are also fluttering around in the image but there is one animal almost impossible to spot – the lonely chick.
The illusion is made especially difficult as everything is in black and white meaning the chick is very well camouflaged into the image.

The lack of colours and the small stature of the hidden bird also make it particularly challenging to spot in the busy photo.
At first, there is no chance there is a chick in the picture but the harder you look the faster you see it.
Spotting hidden animals such as a dog or a cat can be one of the toughest tasks in optical illusions as they’re never quite where you expect.
But luckily these puzzles are super fun to try out with friends and can be a great conversation starter.
In this particular piece, people with a high visual IQ should be able to spot the chick within seconds and leave themselves enough time to enjoy the rest of the sheep.
If you still can’t quite spot the bird then here’s a huge clue.
The chick is smartly using the sheep’s wool to hide.
