Woody Woodpecker

Synopsis

“There are 14 things starting with the letter 'w’ in this picture. Can you find all of them? There are also some mistakes. How many do you see?”

Keywords

puzzle

Indexer Notes

Evidently “Woody” and “woodpecker” are not counted as two separate “things starting with the letter ‘w’ in this picture”, as only “Woody” (and not “woodpecker”) is listed in the answer key. …Even though “Woody” *is* a “woodpecker”! A rake missing some (2-3, but not all) teeth is listed as one of the mistakes. Yet, who doesn't own a rake with some missing teeth?
