There is a fully visible insect in this picture.

I swear.

See alt-text for the spoiler.

@danmccullough I gave up and looked at the alt-text. It's blending in, for sure!
@danmccullough Fun. I had to look at the alt text, too.
@bosquebill @danmccullough That's nearly perfect camouflage!
@danmccullough Naughty, not centering it in the photo. I didn’t look at the alt text btw.
@SteveInVentura Yeah. 🤭 I originally had it centered but once you see it, you can’t unsee it. Plus I knew Steve in Ventura would expect it. 😂
@danmccullough Awesome and amazing. Also right next to the Hide button 👌

@fembot Ha! That was unplanned!

(I swear!) 😂

@danmccullough That was fun👍
I already had a good idea of what I was looking for😉
@lfisk So awesome! Grat pic. And it’s a beauty.
@danmccullough I followed it around the yard with camera in hand. While flying it flashed a brilliant red color. I saw it land on the backside of this tree. Spent another ~5-10 minutes creeping up and trying find it without scaring it off again😆
@lfisk My original photo had a hornet in it as well. But I thought that might confuse things a bit. 😂 The hornet seemed totally unaware even though the mother was only ~ 2 inches from it.
@danmccullough They look kinda blah in the ID books but oh wow. Once you see how they blend in like that in their environment you gain a whole new perspective😍
@lfisk @danmccullough Wow that one was very hard to find

@lfisk

I see it! Excellent camo, that’s so cool!

@danmccullough

@danmccullough
That's some incredible camouflage! I had to zoom way in to see it.
@danmccullough I found it!
@jerzone All that wilderness biking you do. Constantly on the lookout for grey rocks that will send you ass over teakettle. 😂
@danmccullough Face first into an invisible moth!
@danmccullough Catch it without checking CW ! \o/
@danmccullough
Not too bad a hiding place!

@danmccullough

Found it instantly, but I'm used to looking for cryptic critters, so unfair advantage. Truly amazing camo!

@danmccullough Well done you little insect you.
@danmccullough I might have missed it if it was rotated 90°
@danmccullough omg that is so cool! I would never have found it without the alt text!

@danmccullough

I saw it! Without help from alt text! I actually saw it! I’M VERY EXCITED ABOUT THIS

@danmccullough

That's excellent.

It's also exciting for me to see an elm tree.

@danmccullough Took a minute but I found it.

Also alt text say "its wrong" instead of the body part of the insect.

@jarvisscript Thanks for pointing that out. My eyes were shot from trying to find the thing in the multiple photos I took. Edited. 😂
@danmccullough I can't seem to get alt text on my phone or ipad, but I found it without it!
@huskify Oh no! 🤭 That would have been… frustrating. I may have had to send you a sketch!
@danmccullough I found it! Though it looks like a fossil.

@danmccullough Not fully; cut off a little. That threw me off for a short time.

Nice shot!

@RichiH Sorry about that! It looks just tucked in on the border on the original photo but my eyes are so bleary from staring it for the last 2 hours… 😂 Thanks!
@danmccullough I thought I found it, checked the alt text… Turns out I was totally wrong
@andolamin Maybe you found something… better! 😂
@danmccullough Wow! Couldn't see it without the alt text. Now I can't unsee it. 🙂
@danmccullough wow nice trick. I'm sure this image changes after you read the alt text. That's who it must work.
@danmccullough craziest thing is I immediately spotted it as standing out, but then my brain just decided it was an odd growth and it took me almost a minute to see.
@danmccullough until I found it I would have sworn it was just bark...
@danmccullough
Saw it after two minutes.
Really cool!

@danmccullough

I found it. No spoilers - natural camo is so cool.

@danmccullough I was about to give up then, Wow!

Amazing 👍🏿

@danmccullough for a moment I got worried that the the entire “tree” was an insect. Alt text saved me.
@hacktopus Oh, that would have been fiendish!
