Hummingbird approaching a red flower on a table.

This is one more cool illusion by maricv84, one where you slide a transparent sheet with black bars overtop a cryptic image to create an animated effect.

The links for the images used in the video are below. You can print them out and try it at home. Just make sure to use transparency mode for the transparency template and do not change the size of any image—this is very important.
