A good optical illusion can really mess with your head, tricking your eyes and confusing your brain.

These illusions take advantage of how our brains process things like color, light, and patterns, making us see something different from what's really there.

One such illusion, shared in Reddit’s r/FindtheSniper thread, has left people completely stumped.

The image shows what looks like a simple wall, but hidden on that wall is a camouflaged moth just waiting to be found.

Can you spot it? It might take a while.

The picture was posted with the caption: "Moth landed on my wall and vanished. Can you find the moth?"

But don’t feel bad if you can’t see it right away. 

A lot of Reddit users were scratching their heads over this one, too.

One person commented, "That's a wall!?" 

While someone else added, "I'm wigging out, man."

Meanwhile, a user who did manage to find the well-hidden insect shared their excitement: 

"This one took me a little bit. This moth blended in really well with the wall, that's some great camouflage.

"This is a really good picture. I had fun finding the moth."

Even the original poster admitted they got a little freaked out: "As somebody who is uncomfortable around moths, when it just disappeared before my eyes I panicked a little bit."

Still struggling to spot the moth? 

Don’t worry, one user gave some handy directions to help others find it: "Moth is in lower left quadrant.

"Starting at bottom left corner, go to the right about 25% of picture width and then go up 25% of picture height."

"Tossed this little guy out into the woods after I stumbled on him during some landscaping at the house.

"PSA: don't kill copperheads, they're just vibing. Politely relocate them; they appreciate not being turned into 'snake bites.'"

Many people struggled with this one, too. One person wrote, "Oh! There it– nope. Oh! It's th– nope.

"Honestly, it's crazy how effective camouflage is."

A more experienced 'snake sniper' jumped in to help others out, saying the snake is in the ‘bottom left-hand corner’.

They added, "But you gotta keep your eyes sharp! He’s almost completely hidden!"

Others admitted they needed some extra help to spot the snake.

One person wrote, "Thank you ZOOM, if it wasn't for you, I wouldn't have been able to spot the snake. My actual eyes; take note."

These illusions remind us just how good nature is at camouflage, making it both fun and frustrating to spot creatures hiding in plain sight!
