YOU may have the eyes of a hawk if you can spot the insect hidden within the image in 10 seconds.

At first, this picture may not look like anything special – it seems to be just a bunch of sticks on the ground.

There’s a hidden stick bug in this picture – can you spot it?

But there’s actually an insect hidden between the sticks.

Can’t find it, try focusing on the center of the image and you’ll see one of these sticks doesn’t match the other.

Still looking? Don’t worry, we’ll circle the answer for you.

In the dead center of the image, you’ll see a stick bug, also known as a phasmid or ghost insect.

These bugs have a natural camouflage that makes it difficult for predators to find them.

They also have a second line of defense such as toxic secretions.

They’re found on all continents in the world except Antartica but most live in the tropics and subtropics.

A single female stinkbug can lay between 100 to 1,200 eggs after mating but it depends on the species. 

If this puzzle was too easy – or too hard – for you, try these optical illusions instead.

Test out your 20/20 vision by checking if you can find the hidden disco ball in this illusion in under 10 seconds.

For more tricky teasers see why you’re in the top 5% of the population if you can spot the owl and the frog.

Or see if you have the eyes of a hawk if you can find the acorn in the leaves.

You can test out your critical thinking skills by finding the hidden cat in the bedroom.

Optical illusions can also reveal aspects of your personality. 

What you see first in this image could disclose whether your biggest fear is being alone or being ridiculed.

This illusion could reveal if you are an overworker based on what you see first.

If you focused on the center on the image, you’ll easily find the bug among the sticks
