Did you get it right?
Squirrels are hiding around the trees, benches, picnic basket and bandstand while the Sunday concert continues.
The Answer
The correct answer is: 16 squirrels.
Here is why
- Count the squirrels in and around the bandstand and the upper tree branches first.
- Then check the tree trunks, the path and the space beneath both benches.
- Finish with the squirrels in the foreground grass and around the picnic basket.
- Do not count the detached squirrel-shaped ground shadows as extra animals.
Why people miss it
Several squirrels overlap tree bark or bench legs, while dark ground shadows imitate familiar tails and bodies. Counting by zones prevents double counting.
