Hungary-based illustrator , who is best known as Dudolf, designed the challenge to put observation skills to the ultimate test.

He shared the optical illusion on his popular blog and on , where he has amassed a whopping 168,000 followers.

You may have a high IQ if you can spot the penguin among the toucans in less than 20 seconds.

Keep your eyes peeled as many people have mistaken one of the toucans for the elusive penguin.

One person wrote: “Love the artwork, brilliant but difficult...The toucan with sunglasses is very cool...and the one in the yellow shirt very handsome.”

Another commented: “First reaction: Aren’t they all penguins?

"Second thought: So how’s a penguin supposed to look? After some time: I give up, what’s the answer? [laughing].”

A third said: “Tricky, but fun! Thank you!”

A fourth added: “The accessories get me every time. So cute!”

Do you think you’ve already found the penguin hiding in plain sight?

Many people have confessed they were unable to solve the brainteaser before running out of time to beat the record.

Here’s a hint: Try taking a closer look at the shape of the bird’s beaks. 

The puzzle is more difficult than it seems at first glance.

The beloved cartoonist illustrated the worms squirming in all different directions to play tricks on the mind.
