If you've always prided yourself on your keen observational skills, then a new puzzle could well prove your hawk-eyed abilities once and for all. The 'seek and find' puzzle in question shows a lively woodland carnival scene, with animals of the forest enjoying fairground rides, tree houses, and plenty of frolicking about in waterfalls.
Amid all the fun and colour is one hidden carrot, and if you can work out where exactly it is in five seconds or under, then you're likely to have very sharp eyes indeed.
Take a look at the image below, and see if you can figure it out for yourself. The timer starts now:
Did you manage to spot it? Don't worry if not, maybe go back and try timing yourself again for another five seconds if you're determined to work it out for yourself, then read on.
As frustrating as such puzzles can be if you've yet to become an expert, they are great for improving a range of important cognitive skills such as visual perception, concentration, and being able to pick out small yet important details. So don't give up on yourself.
Ready to know the answers? Have a look at the image below, which shows the exact same image with the carrot circled:
As you can see, the carrot has actually been placed on top of a container with some other tasty vegetables, and the detail really is so small that only truly seasoned puzzlers will have spotted it straight away.
If that's not you just yet, then keep trying a range of fun puzzles to keep your brain in tip-top shape, and you'll be able to get your 'seek and find' time down in no time at all.
