Did you get it right?
Count only the real robins in the rainy orchard, not their puddle reflections.
The Answer
The correct answer is: 16 real robins.
Here is why
- There are four robins in the upper branches.
- Three partly hidden robins appear along the fence line.
- One robin stands on the birdbath.
- Eight more robins are on the wet grass and around the puddles, bringing the real-bird total to 16.
Why people miss it
Three strong puddle reflections tempt the eye to count the same birds again. The reflections are softer and sit directly below their real birds, so they do not count.
