The closest thing any of us have come to being 'a sniper' is fighting zombies on CoD.
But it seems our ability to spot a target in a crowded area is fully being put to the test in this one photo.
Out of nowhere, this image has emerged on Reddit and people are stumped by the brainteaser posted in the 'FindTheSniper' thread.

"Find the copperhead," reads the caption, as the user explains: "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.'"
Go on then, let's see if you can find it:

While you're still looking for the snake, we might as well explain what a copperhead is for anyone wondering.
A copperhead is a small venomous snake found in North America, it's especially prominent in wooded areas.
It's got a bit of a killer look to it with reddish-brown, round-shaped patterns running down its back.
But the good news is that its venom isn't usually deadly to humans, though the bad news is that it can still be super painful.

Overall, copperheads are pretty chilled snakes and they won't go after you, unless you step on it and p*ss it off.
As you can tell from the image above, they like to blend in with the leaves and are very hard to spot.
Sadly, many were struggling to find the ol' snake, with one person commenting: "Oh! There it– nope. Oh! It's th– nope. Honestly it's crazy how effective camouflage is.

"Until I joined this sub I'd only ever seen pictures of snakes in books surrounded by a stark white background but seeing it really work.
"Well it just makes me never want to go in the woods again."
While an experienced 'snake sniper' also commented: "Living in the south my whole life… super easy. Lol but they’re great at camouflaging," as another added: "I've become pretty good at spotting them myself; he just took me by surprise. Great eye!"
Without further ado, one eagle-eyed person revealed that the copperhead is in the 'bottom left-hand corner'.

"But you gotta keep your eyes sharp! He’s almost completely hidden!" they explained.
Users noted that you do need to zoom in to the photo to see it, writing: "Thank you ZOOM, if it wasn't for you, I wouldn't have been able to spot the snake. My actual eyes; take note."
