People Are Going Nuts Trying To Find The Hidden Snake In This Photo
"Honestly I zoomed in and found it but when I zoomed out I had lost it again."
A photograph of a snake hiding in a big ol' pile of leaves is currently hurting the eyes of thousands of people as they struggle to find it.
Received this from a fellow HERper this morning. No caption needed, the task was implied: "can you spot the snake?"β¦ https://t.co/it1q8oWJWn
The snake in the picture is a copperhead. It looks like this β so now you know why it's so hard to see.
