The cryptic image shows several outlines of friendly-looking sheep, all jumping in various directions. 

Some of the sheep are jumping over fences, whilst some sit on them or on the grass. 

The crowded field full of the woolly creatures makes it difficult to spot the chick hidden.

The hand-drawn flowers on the ground, as well as bits of grass and butterflies make it harder to see clear space to spot the chick.

People who are able to solve the puzzle quickly possess good observational skills and high cognitive speed.

It tests your ability to process a high volume of visual information and the ability to concentrate under high amounts of pressure.
