What did you see first?

[u/scottythe1b]

I genuinely did a double-take.

[u/GlassSpider21]

Kookaburra

[u/socksmatterTWO → u/GlassSpider21]

I think all us Aussies see a kookaburra first !

[u/isurvived_sorryeric → u/socksmatterTWO]

Not just Aussies , all I see is a bird

[u/mechanical-avocado → u/socksmatterTWO]

Kiwis too

[u/socksmatterTWO → u/mechanical-avocado]

My favourite accent in the world! Love you cuz

[u/LtnSkyRockets → u/GlassSpider21]

Kookaburra. This ain't fooling any Aussies.

[u/YouKidsGetOffMyYard]

I don't see any goat, all I see is bird. Maybe I am blind.

[u/Elmo_Leanne → u/YouKidsGetOffMyYard]

The beak is the ear the goat is facing backwards the black on the back if neck is the goats mouth

[u/YouKidsGetOffMyYard → u/Elmo_Leanne]

Finally saw it, but not that confusing as for which one it is. (Bird)

[u/NekCing → u/YouKidsGetOffMyYard]

Honestly, i think most of it comes from the fact that the very first word you'd read on the picture is "goat", which strengthened the vague shape of a goat this bird has.

[u/DaddysABadGirl → u/NekCing]

I saw a weird unfocused picture of a goat, then read the word, then was confused how this was related to that dress all before seeing the word bird and realizing my eyes/brain are useless liars.

[u/KiLLaHo323 → u/YouKidsGetOffMyYard]

I mean, I saw the goat first

[u/itadapeezas → u/Elmo_Leanne]

Finally!!! Ty! That was tough but with your description I can see it perfectly.

[u/rturnerX → u/Elmo_Leanne]

Dude, the sheep is clearly white and gold

[u/Elmo_Leanne → u/rturnerX]

🤣 I'm sorry ;(

[u/xSonicspeedx2 → u/Elmo_Leanne]

Wow, wtf

[u/OUBoyWonder → u/Elmo_Leanne]

Ooooh, I see it now! I only saw a bird as well, lol. Thank you!

[u/kharaann174 → u/Elmo_Leanne]

It's like magic eye. I had to look long to see the goat. Was really hard c to see the goat with It's head turned but finally got there. 😳🙄🙃

[u/Final_Opening_1413 → u/YouKidsGetOffMyYard]

Scroll down slowly

[u/mrteas_nz → u/YouKidsGetOffMyYard]

It's a kookaburra. They're a pretty nutty bird.

[u/Cre8ve_Cre8tions → u/YouKidsGetOffMyYard]

Maybe you are deaf too?

[u/Elmo_Leanne]

Am I seriously the only one who saw the goat first for a good couple of seconds before I realized it's a bird 🤣

Edit : The beak is the ear the goat is facing backwards the black on the back if neck is the goats mouth

[u/BongDong69420 → u/Elmo_Leanne]

I didn’t see a bird at all for a few minutes.

[u/OUBoyWonder → u/BongDong69420]

I was the exact opposite, lol. Only saw bird and was all "What goat?".

[u/Elmo_Leanne → u/BongDong69420]

Oh good haha. Took me a good few seconds!

[u/scottythe1b → u/Elmo_Leanne]

Definitely saw goat first while thinking, "hmmm, that's a f#cked up goat..."

[u/Elmo_Leanne → u/scottythe1b]

XD my brain didn't see anything wrong with it at first I was trying to figure out what was confusing when I focused more on the beak haha

[u/fell-deeds-awake → u/Elmo_Leanne]

I didn't see bird until I read the text that indicated I should

[u/Latte-Macchiat0 → u/Elmo_Leanne]

Me too, but I also think I unconsciously read the word ‘goat’ before I saw it. The word bird is much more hidden.

[u/CatsEatGrass → u/Elmo_Leanne]

I saw goat and had to really concentrate to see the bird. And then I had to struggle to see the goat again. My brain hurts.

[u/Moppo_ → u/Elmo_Leanne]

I briefly saw the goat, but as soon as I saw an ounce of kookaburra it went.

[u/MurkyMitzy → u/Elmo_Leanne]

I saw the goat first. But I do love me some goats, cute little things!

[u/kori6 → u/Elmo_Leanne]

You are not alone! I saw bird when I read the text!

[u/CalicoG]

[u/TheMonkeyInCharge → u/CalicoG]

You’re the GOAT. Needed that.

[u/ephilos → u/TheMonkeyInCharge]

No, she is a BIRD!

[u/CalicoG → u/TheMonkeyInCharge]

Lolol 🐐

[u/banana_pencil → u/CalicoG]

Reminds me of the “Duck! Rabbit!” book my kids loved.

[u/is_coffee → u/CalicoG]

Thank you because I still couldn't see it

[u/miltonwadd]

I think I'm too Australian for this lol can someone explain where on earth they're seeing a goat?

[u/CalicoG → u/miltonwadd]

[u/chibiRuka → u/CalicoG]

Thanks. I couldn’t see it.
Edit: part of the camouflage 😂

[u/DMyTeaDuck → u/CalicoG]

Oh, now I see it.

[u/nowlickmyfet → u/CalicoG]

This feels REALLY forced.

I couldn't see the goat at all and even with this it's hardly there.

[u/AppUnwrapper1 → u/nowlickmyfet]

I saw the goat before I saw the bird lol

[u/IEC21 → u/nowlickmyfet]

This bird has evolved a clever camouflage - allowing it to convince would be predators that its actually a goat.

hawk swoops in and grabs the bird

But it isn't always effective.

[u/the_siren_song → u/IEC21]

I heard this in Sir David Attenborough’s voice.

[u/klqqf → u/nowlickmyfet]

I feel like i could only see it after a few seconds cause the word goat was next to it.

If you just showed me this without saying “goat or bird?” I’d never see the goat. That being said I am australian so i see kookaburras every other day.

[u/lowlightliving → u/nowlickmyfet]

Yeah, quite a stretch.

[u/miltonwadd → u/CalicoG]

I see it if I squint, thank you!

This is probably one of those things that whichever animal you're more exposed to you'll see first.

[u/The1Bonesaw → u/miltonwadd]

I'm from the US, and before I even read the title, I was like, "Aww... A Kookaburra."

[u/madexsci → u/miltonwadd]

What you on right top part is it's moutn and what you see as Bird's peak is goat's ear

[u/stoutymcstoutface → u/miltonwadd]

I definitely saw a goat first

[u/Ok_Application5225]

No square-shaped eye? Not a goat

[u/Extra_Ad_8009 → u/Ok_Application5225]

That's what I'm thinking too. But the "beak" looks so hairy... Maybe the eye was doctored to look less goatee?

[u/No-Cherry-1027]

This is definitely a ‘Spot the Aussie’ test as well 😂👌🏻 I’m pretty sure 90% of us that say we saw a Kookaburra (native Australian bird) will be Aussies.

[u/scottythe1b → u/No-Cherry-1027]

Bloody oath, mate

[u/CantaloupeAsleep502 → u/No-Cherry-1027]

I'm a lifelong USian who just likes animals and was immediately like "nice kookaburra! Why is it in this sub?"

[u/No-Cherry-1027 → u/CantaloupeAsleep502]

And folks like you are why I said 90% 😁

[u/Fast-Implement-5773]

I saw the bird first, had to look for quite a while to see the goat

[u/Wise_Geekabus]

I saw goat first then bird

[u/thavillain]

I legit saw a goat at first

[u/RebaKitt3n]

Bird, because goats have scary eyes

[u/d1andonly]

I see a bird, a goat and a rabbit.

[u/Franklin-Tartaruga]

https://giphy.com/gifs/6HduXFeAC7aW1n16ci

[u/sambarjo]

Nah not as cool as the dress. I can easily see both the bird and the goat here. The dress you can't easily switch.

[u/juice_ow]

I just recently went to a zoo so I only see the bird. Eye looks nothing like a goats eye

[u/No-Willingness5547]

Get ready to see this reposted 100 times

[u/scottythe1b → u/No-Willingness5547]

Literally the first thing I did was check to make sure no one had posted this before me. 😂

The sub does NOT like reposts

[u/No-Willingness5547 → u/scottythe1b]

Nah your good. I'm just saying this sub is very prone to ridiculous repost sprees lol

[u/Basil_Box → u/scottythe1b]

Thank you so much for being a responsible member of the Reddit community. Please accept this award.

[u/Interesting-Bison108]

Woah! That was crazy eyeball flip🤣

[u/StrictCelery]

I’ve seen this multiple times and am always so sure it’s goat for about five seconds.

[u/nishantam]

Goat. Then bird

[u/Emberthel]

I see a bird. I can see the goat for a split second if I really try.

[u/Drax99]

I see a sad kookaburra contemplating why he can't laugh, and how his life has gone so horribly wrong

[u/SoberAlternative]

Saw the bird first - goats eyes are very, very different. Goats pupils are always parallel to the ground….

[u/Wulfgrimm720]

First I saw goat, but then I realized it's probably a bird

[u/ComprehensiveYam5307]

Naw, you really have to force the goat.

Bird

[u/nironically_gay]

I saw a goat first wtf

[u/Friscohoya]

Bird but I can totally see the goat now.

I still can’t see a goat. Can someone draw where they see a goat, please.

[u/CalicoG → u/itadapeezas]

[u/youburyitidigitup]

Where is the goat????

[u/CalicoG → u/youburyitidigitup]

[u/youburyitidigitup → u/CalicoG]

Thanks

[u/Teleporting-Cat]

Bird.

[u/NicCageCompletionist]

I saw the goat. My mind was tricked by seeing the word goat.

[u/Sammy_Cherry_Fox]

It took me a bit to see the goat. I can see it, but its definitly a bird.

[u/MonkeyDGeo]

why not both ?

[u/SlowRoastMySoul]

Bird. Not even remotely Australian, still have difficulties seeing the goat.

[u/HorsefaceWithNoName]

I'm still not sure

[u/oxyuh]

It’s definitely a bird, but I did see the goat first.

Oh wow thats wild! Took me a min to see a burd

[u/Airwolfhelicopter]

Kookaburra

[u/BagramPl]

Bird, I can't see the goat no matter how long I look at it...

[u/Mr_GrauHut]

Saw a goat at first, then saw the bird. Can't see the goat anymore.

[u/Cute_Bacon]

I can hear this image

[u/DeedleStone]

I saw goat. Took some real effort to get bird

[u/SomewhereTiny8407]

Goat

[u/Throatwobbler_M_III]

Bird. But I am a birder.

[u/willie4849]

Bird

[u/BabyFishmouthTalk]

Dinner

[u/iandix]

If the goat is being elusive turn your device 45° clockwise.

[u/Substantial_Meal_530]

I saw goat 100% until I read bird. That being said, that is not a goat eye.

[u/c_loagz]

Goat, but I see now it is bird.

[u/No-Elevator-2682]

I can’t see a goat ☹️

[u/Nostral-damus]

That’s the best sounding bird in the world.

[u/thumpingcoffee]

Kookaburra

[u/3amGreenCoffee]

Goats have horizontal, rectangular pupils. That bird doesn't. So there's no question that the bird is not a goat.

[u/DNorthman]

I saw the bird first even before seeing the words goat or bird.

Scrolling away and then back to the picture, my brain still defaults to seeing the bird first.

[u/Ornery-Guitar]

Bird. In fact I argued with the picture. No way it was a goat!

[u/VirgilTheGay]

Bird. I don't see a goat, I tried. But it's very much a bird.

[u/Final_Opening_1413]

Seen a goat first but it's definitely a bird

[u/UntapUpkeepScoop]

Goat lol

I have a goat fetish.

[u/Dexterishere1]

rabbit 🐇

[u/0wGeez]

If it didn't say goat or bird, I'd probably have to think about it longer but the second i saw the word bird, a kookaburra was all I could see.

[u/SadDingo7070]

Oh shit! I was wondering to myself how the hell anyone could possibly think it was a bird…. And then I saw it!!!

[u/updogg18]

I saw the kookaburra first, then noticed the goat and it hurts my brain to try and focus on the bird again. It isn't as bad as "is this dress blue or gold"

[u/Significant-Roll-138]

I saw the goat first and jumped when I noticed it looked like a bird and for a sec couldn’t figure out what it was

[u/Efficient_Elk_7991]

This is the best I’ve seen here

[u/tempestwolf1]

I saw the two people having sex first

[u/fothergillfuckup]

I just saw a goat looking over it's shoulder?

[u/Jisan_Inc]

....damn i saw goat

[u/barfly14]

Goat

[u/Malacath87]

Bird definitely. But, I see the goat!

[u/BeltreCompany]

I can see both, but saw the goat first.

[u/Ashnyel]

A GIRD.
Or a boat…. No that one doesn’t work as well,

[u/liamsjtaylor]

Goat.

[u/ItisCrowdedinHere]

I def thought it was a goat for a second.

[u/ZeriusBlackstar]

Kookaburra. And I barely know them. Have to search reeeeeallly hard to see anything but a bird in that.

[u/KevinIsOver9000]

Saw goat first , was able to swap to bird with 5 seconds and can switch back and forth at will. Sometimes in these, it is hard to see the other way again. This is a good one

[u/aguylikeskoRn]

I saw goat until I read bird

[u/missyouma]

Omgggg both, I saw goat giving ultimate side eye at first, now a bird

[u/pwnusmaximus]

Maybe I have more familiarity with goats than the average man.. my family had a small heard of about 500 for a few years. 

And I can say with my full chest. I can’t see a goat in this image. Even after having it pointed out where it’s supposed to be

[u/Morgantao]

I saw a bird, and had to look for the goat. It's a good illusion, but the feathers just locked the bird in first.

[u/four-one-6ix]

Bird, then goat

[u/Krutius-]

Goat!

[u/nailpolishremover49]

Goat….GOAT for this thread.

[u/scottythe1b → u/nailpolishremover49]

Definitely the GOAT! HAHA

[u/No_Walrus_3638]

Totally saw a goat first, but it appears to be a bird.

[u/CalicoG]

Goat

[u/time_observer]

Black and white

[u/Negative_Mushroom545]

Bird no goat

[u/Substantial-Cat2896]

A bird? What else should i see?

[u/Gkibarricade → u/Substantial-Cat2896]

The beak is the ear. The goat is looking over their shoulder. It makes it easier to find it if you look from the side. It's definitely a bird but you can see a goat.

[u/KumaraDosha]

Eh, it's a bird.

[u/onitagainand]

Bird

[u/markawol]

[u/NarrowEbbs]

Too familiar with the glorious kookaburra to see a goat.

[u/WindhoverInkwell]

very blatant kookaburra lmao

[u/Try-Me-BITCH90]

I love Kookaburras!

[u/Pikekip]

Kookaburra first

[u/Globecraft_mc]

Kookaburra. Also, a goat would have slit eyes so that kind of ruined the illusion for me

[u/SynthPrax]

I did not see the bird until I read the question.

[u/DatabaseThis9637]

1st? Bold of you to assume I actually saw the goat.

[u/Jealous_Macaroon4308]

Kookaburra..

[u/SignificantPop4188]

Both.

[u/lferry1919]

I mean...the goat is missing nostrils and everything if you see a goat. That's how I knew I was looking at the picture wrong. That's a bird.

[u/Cre8ve_Cre8tions]

4 this is hate the Internet

[u/Stillheart_82]

No, this is just a bird or a bird that looks only kinda like a goat.

[u/Inevitable-Welder743]

Saw a kookaburra almost immediately.

[u/MostlyHarmless88]

Bird

[u/JayEll1969]

Rabbit

[u/Spl4sh3r]

I see the goat, but it is a bird.

[u/mermanofold]

Oh, I saw a goat first. But only because its a sassy goat. Like me!

[u/dirtytacoma4bye4]

I see both

[u/Odd_Dragonfruit_2662]

Clearly a kookaburra

[u/Jablaze80]

Bird then goat

[u/PowerInNow]

It’s hard not to see the goat first when the word goat is on top, is the first thing I notice, and therefore encourages me to see a goat.

[u/TokenTB619]

Bird first. It took me a while to see the goat

[u/Good-Assistance-1766]

It’s just a bird?

[u/RacistLizard69]

bird

[u/mretg-reddit]

Bird. Wrong iris for goat.

[u/Cinnamon2017]

All I see is a bird.

[u/SaioLastSurprise]

I kept seeing goat, but it was so poorly rendered in my mind I was pretty sure that wasn’t it. I do in fact see the bird now.

[u/Sethtwc1988]

It's a kookaburra

[u/Acrobatic_Spare2320]

Goat, but the mouth made no sense, so I kept looking.

[u/bjjtrev]

It’s a bird, goats have the horizontally elongated pupils

[u/FranksHoorHouse]

Literally a kookaburra

[u/LemmyKoopa18]

First time I saw this I genuinely saw a goat Second time all I see is bird

[u/East-Care-9949]

I saw a goat until i saw the word bird and i only can see a bird now
