At first glance, this image may just look like a collection of trees and branches. In fact, the picture looks as though you could hang it on the wall as a beautiful depiction of nature on a sunny day, as the sunlight peeks between branches and casts different shades of light on the leaves.

But this isn't an art piece - it's a puzzle. Somewhere in this image is a deer, and it's your job to find it.

If you want to set yourself a time limit, the score to beat is just 10 seconds. Finding the deer within the time limit allows you to brag you're among the best of the best - but it definitely isn't easy to do.

Don't worry if it takes you longer to find the animal, though. Only the smartest minds with lots of practice in tricky puzzles can find the deer that quickly, and you'll get quicker at locating these hidden objects the more you try.

Answer

The deer is actually right in the middle of the photo.

You'll probably need to zoom in to see it, but it is on a grassy verge in the centre of the picture. If you follow the branches at the front of the image to their highest point, you can see a small clearing between two darker patches of leaves.

In this clearing should be the deer, and you can just about make out its brown body against the green and yellow colours of the grass and sunlight that surround it.
