If you can see a snake in less than seven seconds, you have the eyes of a hungry hawk.
The stunning artwork depicts a green rainforest full of trees, branches, parrots and one hidden snake.
A person with good eyesight should be able to quickly find a decomposing animal and catch it before it is too late.
But for a puzzle that seems so simple, the snake’s excellent camouflage blends cheekily with similar-looking greenery and branches.

If you can solve an optical illusion, you could be the ultimate snake hunter with your clever problem-solving brain.
The painting shows eight parrots sitting on trees surrounded by vines and leaves in a rainforest.
At first glance there is no chance of a snake in the photo, but the deeper you look, the faster it appears.
Several striking similarities between the snake and the vine make this almost impossible for the average person to do.
A tiny snake is hidden in the photo, but with so much going on, you’re sure to run out of time as the flamboyant parrots will distract and slow you down.
The multiple different shades of green covertly repel you and you waste time searching through the leaves instead of looking at other areas of the image.
This is why it’s so hard to find a snake in less than seven seconds because you have to search it super fast.
Studies have shown that people who regularly face optical illusions and puzzles see great improvements in their problem-solving skills, concentration and attention.
Psychologists at the University of Glasgow have discovered that looking at an optical illusion can improve vision by allowing you to see fine print.
And according to ZenBuisness, “These visual puzzles can provide you with good mental exercise, which in turn can help you think more effectively and solve problems more easily.”
The brain teaser looks like a picture by a great children’s book illustrator, but it’s actually from serial illusion creator Jagran Josh, who likes to test his fans’ detective skills.
The photo left many eager to find the snake, but several had difficulty due to the large number of distractions.
In this particular piece, people with a high visual IQ should be able to spot it within seconds and give themselves plenty of time to enjoy the image.
