This tweet was sent by gravelinspector. Can you spot the snow leopard? I put the photo below the tweet, and you can enlarge it. I would call this “pretty hard”. The reveal will be at 11 a.m. Chicago time.

Did you find the bobcat in this morning’s photo? Here’s the reveal:
Reader Fred sent me a photo that came from this tweet. Can you spot the bobcat in it? I’ll put the extracted picture below, and will post the reveal at noon Chicago time.
Please don’t put the answer in the comments so that others can search. But you can say whether you spotted it.

Find it! (Click to enlarge.) I’d call this fairly easy:
This is dead easy, but several hikers missed this giant Galápagos tortoise along the trail (Isabela island). Can you spot it? This is rated “easy-peasy.”
This photo comes from a frustrated Mark Richardson, who gives us an easier “spot the” photograph. Can you find the goldfinch? I’d call this one “pretty damn easy”, in fact so easy that there will be no reveal.
Since the last couple “Spot the…” posts have been so difficult (for me at least…I couldn’t find the damsel fly or the hermit crab) I thought I’d offer an easy one. This is spot the American goldfinch (Spinus tristis), Washington’s state bird. We put out a nyjer seed feeder (touted as the goldfinches favorite food) and sure enough, we have at least three pairs visiting regularly.

Did you spot the damselfly in Robert Lang’s photo posted this morning? Here’s the reveal (circled) and a closeup:
Robert Lang sent this “spot the” photo that he took recently. Can you spot the damselfly? Enlarge the photo by clicking on it. The reveal is at noon Chicago time, and I rate this one “pretty hard.”
Please don’t reveal where it is in the comments, so that each reader can find it for themselves.
