Tony Ward mailed me this interesting illusion. First time I saw it, I tought to myself: “Right, another count the horses illusion – nothing new”! But what struck me was next email Tony sent to me. There is actually something hidden in picture itself. Can you see it? I didn’t until Tony priovided outlined picture solution. Open the image full size and try locating the illusion (it isn’t the birds!)

This is what Tony Ward sent in his first email: “This one I’ll always love, not just because its a beautiful piece of art,but because I had thought for a long time that it was catagorised as an optical illusion simply due to the way the horses fade into the picture one side and fade out, changing into a flock of birds, the other side…. Then, one day I saw it, the hidden illusion, and it blew me away….”

There were few very simmilar illusions posted in the past here.

    the secret image looks like the ‘dark mark’ in the harry potter books; a skull with a snake coming out of its mouth.

    For those who still cannot see it, here is an image of the native american head in a different color so you can spot it easily.

  25. Rachel says:

    its horses turning into a flock of birds, as stated in the fucking text above the picture! READ PEOPLE READ!

    • kooki101 says:

      dude thts pretty obvious tht they turn into birds so ofcourse thts not the hidden image, hense to word HIDDEN

    • Abob says:

      WHY DON’T U READ THE TEXT???!!!! READ IT ALL, NOT JUST A LINE OR TWO. IT SAYS THATS NOT THE ILLUSION!!

    • Ronnie says:

      Haha Rachel you’re really dumb. You can’t read!

    • jack bowden says:

      don’t swear your obviously to young if you cant be bothered reading the text

    • Longview says:

      Oh my god! Rachel, you are SO EXTREMELY COOL AND HARDCORE; you said the word “fucking”. You are such a rebel. Extremely cool and unique. *inserts sarcasm*

      First of all:
      - Why don’t you read?
      - Isn’t it pretty obvious that they change into birds? The text said there was another HIDDEN illusion.
      - Don’t swear: It makes you seem even more stupid than you already are.

  26. Niki says:

    Ummm, maybe you should re-read it there my friend lols.

  27. sarah says:

    its a rock star :P

  28. Cormac says:

    Wow, I didn’t see it for so long, and I’m normally quite good at this stuff! But I must admit it’s a wonderful picture even without the native American…

  29. me says:

    it’s a face in the middle

  30. ohmygosh says:

    there a horses that change into birds, but as they change, there’s like someone in the middle…

  31. noone says:

    AHA! I see the horses, birds, face…. and SOMETHING ELSE!!! Do you see it? Scary!!

  32. Shriya says:

    What is it? PLEASE TELL ME! I’M DYING TO KNOW!!

    I don’t want to lose sleep over this! LOL

    Cool illusion…thanks:)

  33. Grace says:

    *cough* you meant thought instead of tought.

  34. Grace says:

    *cough* you also meant similar instead of simmaler. Vurdlak, you need spellcheck.

  35. Non of your bizzo says:

    It’s none of the above because I work with a person who makes optical illusions and we looked on this website and founded tha it’s actually a bird riding on a horse. If you look in the middle (the brown part) and zoom in then you will see what it actually is! It’s not a bloody native American or a rockstar! XD

  36. victoria says:

    its a lions head !

  37. nico says:

  39. DJ says:

    Bev Doolittle art. She has some amazing ones, and most are based on American Indians.

  42. Cody says:

  44. BunnyGirl says:
