Everyone can see the puppy – you have a bird of prey’s eyes if you can spot the butterfly in plain sight in 7 seconds

START the countdown and figure out if your eyes are up to par with this test of perception speed.

Take a look at this busy, yet adorable, image and spot the butterfly in seven seconds or less in order to show off your quick thinking.

Try not to make the easy mistake of focusing on the cute Labrador puppy placed front and center - it's there to distract you from the fluttering goal.

Tasks like these are best tackled with a plan.

Try scanning the picture systematically, whether that is left to right or outside inward, avoid letting your eyes jump all over the image.

Consider thinking about how you would hide a small insect in such a butterfly and check the less obvious places for the delicate creature.

If you have come this far without finding it, chances are you missed the seven-second mark and are probably ready for a hint.

The image's artist is not hiding the insect in plain sight, it is truly part of the background.

In fact, it is so well hidden that the butterfly you are looking for is not the actual animal but an image of the animal within the image you are searching.

Seven seconds is long past now but perhaps you can still imagine the ticking that the butterfly would surely be hearing given its placement.

Keep on reading if you feel ready for the answer: take a look to the right of the grandfather clock on the wall in the background, there is a framed picture of a butterfly hanging above a drama mask.

Whether you found it in a second or needed to read the answer, everyone can benefit from exercising their brain with a few more illusions and puzzles.
