At first glance, the optical illusion tricks the mind into believing that there isn’t anything lurking in the background.

But everything isn’t as it seems and the illustrator has strategically placed the pear and hamster where you would least expect them to be.

Notable cartoonist , who is also known as Dudolf, shared the seek-and-find challenge on his popular blog.

He scattered blackbirds and a pumpkin among the corn to distract puzzlers from the objects they should be focused on finding.

There is a 23-second record to beat with many people eager to become the fastest person to solve the challenge.

Do you think you’ve spotted the pear and the hamster?

Many of Dudolf’s 168,000 followers admitted they could only find one of the items that they were supposed to look for.

One person wrote: “Found the hamster. Thought the hamster might have eaten the pear. Then I looked at the solution, you are good.”

Another commented: “Hamster was easy but the pear, I’ll have to come back tomorrow.”

A third said: “I’m the opposite I found the pear but couldn’t find the hamster. Loved it.”

A fourth chimed in: “Hamster is so sneaky. Found them both on full view, great challenge.”

Another added: “Found the hamster but couldn’t find the pear. This was the first time I had to check the solution.”

The challenge takes immense focus to spot both the hamster and pear hidden among the corn.

Hint: Try taking a closer look at the corn on the outer edges of the image.

The mind-bender comes after Dudolf challenged his fans to spot the fish hiding at the bottom of the ocean.

The fish was surrounded by colorful squids, seahorses, and starfish as well as an eye-catching shipwreck. 

Many puzzlers were forced to give up on their search after failing to beat the 20-second record.
