Did you get it right?
Count only the real ducks and ducklings in the pond scene, not the painted ducks on the feed sign.
The Answer
The correct answer is: 17 real ducks and ducklings.
Here is why
- Start with the two ducks on the dock at the lower left.
- Count the ducks and ducklings across the water from left to right.
- Finish with the adult duck and ducklings along the lower-right bank.
- Do not count the two painted ducks on the feed sign.
Why people miss it
The feed sign looks like part of the scene, and the ducklings overlap near the reeds, which makes the count easy to second-guess.
