Did you get it right?
This pond-edge puzzle asks you to count every duck and duckling near the reeds, bridge, bench, water reflections, and shadows.

The Answer
The correct answer is: The intended answer is 19 ducks and ducklings..
Here is why
- Count the clear ducks and ducklings in the open water first.
- Then check the reeds and the picnic-bench area for partial ducklings.
- Finally check behind the footbridge rail and in the water reflection.
Why people miss it
The first count usually misses the partial ducklings in the reeds, the ducks behind the bridge rail, and the reflected duck shape.
