Can you spot the 3 differences in cute turtle drawings in under 10 seconds
The side-by-side drawings, shared by X (formerly Twitter) user @BholanathDutta, challenge viewers to spot three subtle differences between two nearly identical illustrations.
At first glance, the turtles appear to be mirror images of each other, right down to their relaxed expressions, round shells and tally-mark patterns.
But eagle-eyed viewers will quickly realize something's a little off.
The challenge? Find all three discrepancies in under 10 seconds.
It may sound simple, but even the most confident puzzle-solvers have found themselves stumped.
The image has racked up hundreds of views and sparked debate online, with many users boasting lightning-fast times - and others admitting defeat after staring for far too long.
So what exactly separates the two turtles?
The first difference is in the nose.
If you look closely, the turtle on the top has a tiny nostril above its grin, giving it a slightly more realistic expression.
That bottom drawing has no nose making the turtle look even more uninterested.
The second variation hides in the turtle's shell.
Among the dozens of tally-mark shapes scrawled across its back, one grouping in the bottom image features a bright yellow line that stands out against the otherwise all-green markings of the top turtle.
It's a tiny detail, but once you spot it, it's hard to miss.
And finally, the third difference lies in the lower part of the turtle's shell.
Just above their little webbed feet, both turtles have a rim that outlines the base of the shell - but look closely, and you'll notice that the bottom turtle's shell rim is a noticeably lighter shade of green compared to the one on top.
If you managed to catch all three differences in under 10 seconds, congratulations - you've got the eyes of a hawk and the reflexes to match.
But if it took a little longer, you're not alone.
These kinds of visual puzzles are meant to trip up even the most observant minds.
As brain teasers like this continue to captivate users online, experts say they offer more than just fun - they also provide a quick mental workout, helping to improve attention to detail, concentration, and short-term memory.

Absolute creamer! Instagram star Prime Mutton takes America – with a passion for pints
You might not be familiar with Prime Mutton. Maybe you haven't heard his catchphrases – 'absolute creamer', 'muttonista', or the still-in-development 'creamerisimo'. If so, you're missing out on a man who in the space of a year has created little short of a cult: an army of more than 160,000 social media fans, including celebrities, who cheer along online and in person as their leader – basically – reviews beer. Prime Mutton, whose real name is Jason Hackett, isn't the typical social media star. He is not, with all due respect, a beautiful twentysomething posting videos that are brightly lit with nice colors and snappy edits. He's a 55-year-old professional bridge player from Manchester, with a moustache, a leather pork pie hat, and a body that, he readily admits, reflects his enthusiasm for ale. The lighting in his videos is not up to professional standards, they are rife with background noise – he films the videos in bars – and his recent experiments with fonts and emojis have frequently been chaotic. But what Prime Mutton does have is a passion: a passion for pints. That devotion, coupled with his unvarnished persona and his 'absolute creamer' catchphrase – uttered with relish when a beer meets his high standards – have been enough for him to succeed where so many Brits before him have not: he has cracked America. 'I think people, when I publish my little videos and posts, it brings them quite a lot of happiness,' Prime Mutton told the Guardian on a recent Sunday in Brooklyn. 'People, you know, wake up, they're about to go to work, or they're at work on their break, and it's something that makes them happy – and it's wholesome and authentic as well.' Prime Mutton – 'the brain in terms of knowledge of food and drink is prime; the body is mutton, in that I'm not exactly a honed, prime physical athletic specimen' – is on his first US tour, appearing in Boston, New York, Philadelphia and beyond. He has visited dozens of bars, drawing thousands of fans, many wearing T-shirts bearing his face or holding banners with the legend 'absolute creamer'. The in-person appearances, which Prime Mutton announces in advance on his Instagram, follow the same formula as his videos. Prime Mutton appears on camera standing in a bar, holding a pint of beer. He greets the visiting 'muttonistas' – a term he coined for fans, and one which they have eagerly embraced, before announcing where he is, and which beer he is going to review. Then the magic begins. Sommeliers and cicerones advise that the best way to taste wine or beer is to swish it in the glass, sniff, sip, and swill it around in your mouth to really assess the flavors. Prime Mutton does not do this. Instead, he raises his pint and takes a gigantic swig, a full four or five gulps, until two-thirds of the beer is consumed. After coming up for air, he takes a few moments before delivering his verdict. The gold standard, for Prime Mutton and his adherents, is that the beer is an 'absolute creamer'. His delivery of the phrase, which he said he picked up on a visit to Ireland, sends crowds online and in person into ecstasy. The Guardian met Prime Mutton at a bar close to where he was due to make his first appearance of the day. The idea was to have a private chat before he addressed the muttonistas. But nowhere is private for Prime Mutton these days. As we talked, a man, in his 50s, balding, with a grey beard, spotted us through the window and began to wave, hopping up and down excitedly. The man was Paul Giamatti, Golden Globe and Emmy-winning, Oscar- and Bafta-nominated actor. From outside, Giamatti motioned for us to stay in place – the man really can act – and ran out of view. He quickly reappeared with his son and hustled into the bar. He was wearing a black polo shirt which said 'Muttonista' above an image of Prime Mutton. Giamatti introduced himself as Paul. Rarely has a man looked happier. He asked if he could have a photo. 'Of course,' said Prime Mutton – and one was taken. The two men chatted briefly before a beaming Giamatti left. I asked Prime Mutton if he knew who that was. He did not. I told him it was a famous actor. 'See, that's not my world,' Prime Mutton said, but he did add that Giamatti 'seemed very nice'. Giamatti satiated, it was time for Prime Mutton to head to Hartley's bar, where about 150 people had gathered in a pub designed to hold about 30 people. The majority of the crowd had to settle for a spot outside, some spilling over into the road. Mutton was here to sample the Guinness, which he had been told was among the best the city has to offer. As we walked round the corner together, the crowd went wild. There was a primal roar, like people cheering a musician as they emerge at the Super Bowl. This was Mutton as a more conservatively dressed, somewhat heavier Kendrick Lamar – a rough and ready British interpretation of American celebrity. Inside, an area had been spaced out for Prime Mutton to taste the bar's Guinness. A hush went over the crowd as he was presented with a pint. He raised it to his lips and paused, a showman teasing his audience. Then he drank, gulp after gulp, as he drained more than two-thirds of the beer. Prime Mutton set the glass down on the bar. He smacked his lips. Foam hung on his moustache. Tension hung in the air. The crowd was now completely silent. Their entire focus was on this man, wearing a pork pie hat and suspenders, a man about to make days or crush dreams. Hairs on the backs of necks were raised. Which way would Caesar Mutton's thumb point? He paused, considering his decision. 'That's good. It's very good actually,' Prime Mutton said, but there was more. 'However, I can't say it's the best pint I've had in New York.' Hearts sank. His assessment wasn't over, however. 'But it's still so good,' Prime Mutton said, 'that I'm going to call it an absolute creamer.' An almighty cheer went up. People went wild. Men jumped up and down and hugged each other. High fives were exchanged between strangers. A woman nearly fell off a stool. The muttonistas, much like Prime Mutton's thirst, had been sated. 'He's completely endearing, and sort of what I need in my heart right now, given the state of the world,' said Nick Lucchesi, as Prime Mutton polished off the rest of his pint. 'I mean, look at him. He's smiling and kind of quite Mancunian in all the best ways.' Lucchesi had already seen Mutton once on this tour, but came back for more, cycling across Brooklyn to lend his support. 'He's certainly a wonderful bloke. I just feel like: who doesn't like a Guinness? And a nice guy dropping a catchphrase and talking about it? It makes you feel good,' he said. Others echoed the sentiment. And at a time when male influencers are frequently awful, it's true that Mutton offers something different from the rest. He's not ordering young men to dunk their heads in ice at 3.50am. He's not a misogynist, he's not racist, he doesn't belittle anyone, he's basically … not a dickhead. He's just a man, a man who likes drinking beer, who likes making his videos, and likes bringing people joy. At a time when a lot is wrong with society, when many of us have found ourselves searching for something real and grounded and normal, who wouldn't want to be a muttonista? This article was amended on 7 July 2025. A previous version said Paul Giamatti had been introduced to Prime Mutton by his son. It was actually Giamatti who introduced his son to Prime Mutton.

The Project makes huge backflip as lone ranger takes up the mantle of continuing axed show
The Project aired its final show on June 27, but within days, an anonymous social media manager had taken up the mantle of continuing its legacy. In early June, Network 10 announced that the popular news panel show would come to an end after 16 years on the air and 4,500 episodes. But it was an anonymous Ten employee who had the last laugh. 'The bosses really should have changed the password from Password1,' the first taunting post from The Project's new keeper read. In the caption, the admin who calls themselves 'the social media hero', teased their TV bosses: 'Look who's in charge now.' From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. The official Project Instagram account has 401,000 followers, a larger audience than either The Project, or its replacement 10 News+, draws. 10 News+ launched with a whimper last week - with just a measly 291,000 Australians tuning in for the much-hyped news program on its first night and the ratings sliding from there. As the new series limped through its first week on-air, The Project's new overlord posted an update: 'Still cancelled. Still curious.' 'I have nobody to share the silly news I see from around the world with,' the mysterious admin penned. 'That, and the other things we should be discussing… Shall I just post the things that interest/make me laugh anyway?' Former The Project host Sam Taunton was quick to respond: 'Do you know if I left my wallet in the office????' 'I stole the money but yes,' The Project TV replied. 'I will DM you my CV,' Taunton added in a joking reference to his axing. The Project fans have flocked to the axed TV show's Instagram account in support of the rogue Ten employee who is now managing the account The response online has been immense. People love an anonymous Gossip Girl in real life, as much as they do in fiction. As with (formerly anonymous) Instagram accounts 'Miss Double Bay' and 'Pink Patti Cakes', the anonymous The Project has reeled in quite the audience. 'I just assumed the news stopped when we did,' Rove McManus commented. Even The Feed SBS' social media manager joined in on the fun: 'Hi from the other youth news show that got cancelled in the 2010s. We should get a beer.' The Bachelor star Matty 'J' Johnson said he 'feels like I'm speaking to the ghost of a deceased relative.' In the past week, The Project TV's Instagram has covered such news as a Sydney woman being knocked down by a cardboard box in the 'bomb' cyclone, Kanye West's Australian visa cancellation, and the 'hero' Aussie who spent $6500 fuelling his Guzman Y Gomez addiction. However, the flurry of posts has certainly confused some viewers, who assumed the activity signalled hope for The Project on TV. 'So...I posted a few things. People noticed. Slightly more than I expected,' the social media 'hero' posted in another update over the weekend. 'Turns out, there's a lot of news. Whether it's serious stuff, the weird stuff, the did that actually happen?! stuff. I reckon we have enough to fill a few posts a you seem to like it? 'So here's the deal: I post news. You read it, laugh, comment, and maybe have a little existential crisis (optional), and we keep building a space that feels smart, sharp, and not sad all the time. 'Sounds good? Want more? Say the word. And if you don't...I'll keep pretending you my mental health.' 'Want to come along for the ride & be silly while being smart?,' the admin asked in the caption. 'Let me know, ideally before bedtime.' 'In!' former host Rachel Corbett commented, alongside hundreds of others. While there is already talk that 10News+ might not make it to 2026, Ten appears to have struck the right chord by rebranding The Project as a social-first platform, similar to The Daily Aus.

Cierra Ortega exits 'Love Island USA' villa following backlash over resurfaced racial slur posts
Cierra Ortega, a contestant of this summer's 'Love Island USA' left the villa just a week before the finale of the hit reality series is set to air on Peacock. Her departure, announced Sunday, followed weeks of uproar from viewers after old posts from Ortega resurfaced that contained a racial slur against Asian people. The show's narrator, Iain Stirling, announced Ortega had departed 'due to a personal situation' early in Sunday's episode. Ortega becomes the second contestant this season to depart the show amid controversy due to past social media posts. Yulissa Escobar abruptly exited last month in the second episode after clips of her using racist language resurfaced online. Her departure was also not explained in the show. A spokesperson for the show declined to comment Monday. Ortega's family posted to her Instagram story Sunday evening following the announcement of her departure, asking the public 'for compassion. For patience. For basic human decency. 'While Cierra is not in the villa anymore, she is still away. She hasn't had the chance to process any of this or speak for herself," her family wrote. "But we know our daughter. We know her heart. And when she returns, we believe she'll face this with honesty, growth, and grace.' Her family said they, along with Ortega's friends and online supporters, have received threats, attacks and cruel messages on social media, noting that 'no one deserve that kind of hate, no matter what mistakes they've made.' 'Love Island USA' is an American spin-off of the original U.K. series and is airing its seventh season. The show airs daily except Wednesdays and brings young singles together in a remote villa in Fiji to explore connections with the ultimate goal of finding love. Couples undergo challenges and are encouraged test their romantic connections as new contestants are introduced. Islanders are routinely 'dumped' from the villa throughout the series as stronger couples form. The winning couple receives $100,000. The show, which strips contestants of their phones or access to the outside world, has previously asked fans to avoid cyberbullying contestants. Host Ariana Madix called for fans to stop doxxing and harassing the show's stars in a recent interview with The Associated Press. Ortega entered the villa at the end of the first episode as a bombshell, one of the first in a steady stream of new contestants who come in after the show began, often expected to disrupt existing couples and create new relationship dynamics. Ortega quickly coupled up with Nic Vansteenberghe, whom she remained with up until her departure. Her exit broke up one of the few consistent couples of the season. The couple had just announced a few episodes prior they were 'closed off,' a popular 'Love Island' phrase to indicate neither contestant was interested in exploring a connection with any other islander. 'Before Cierra had left, my mind was clear. I knew what the future would look like, and now, I'm lost,' Vansteenberghe said during Sunday's episode. Vansteenberghe stayed on the show as a single islander after Ortega left, and he ultimately re-coupled with fellow contestant Olandria Carthen before the end of the episode. Belle-A Walker, a contestant who was dumped earlier this season, took to Instagram to express heartbreak over Ortega's resurfaced posts. Walker, who is Asian American, said she is 'deeply appreciative' of the show's producers 'for taking a stand and making it clear that racism of any kind is not tolerated.' 'Asian hate is oftentimes overlooked and dismissed. But being a first-generation American, I have personally witnessed and experienced how real and hurtful comments like these are," Walker wrote on her Instagram story page. "It is my hope that this situation can help shed light on how big of an issue anti-Asian hate really is.'
