Where's Bug, Space Duck and Space Seagull? – No. 40

Aug 26, 2025

A dark photo taken at night shows a calm body of water with a pier extending into it on the left. The pier is brightly lit, creating a long reflection on the water's surface. A bright moon is visible in the sky above the pier. In the foreground, a low, rocky wall runs along the bottom of the frame. The words "See you next time!" are written in a large, elegant script in the upper-middle of the image. The photo is bordered by a dark purple frame with small, white stars scattered across it. A bug, a duck and a seagull have been hidden in the photo.
In this memory: Bug Space Seagull Space Duck

I took this photo on the final evening of TestBash 2024 in Brighton, UK. It was just before I joined everyone at the social event. The light on the pier and sea was stunning!

I was utterly exhausted from "peopleing" and missed my hometown, Bournemouth. If you've not been, there are seven miles of sandy beaches.

I decided to add a cheesy "See you next time!" to turn it into a postcard like one you'd pick up in a tourist shop right on the beach.

This time around, Bug, Space Duck and Space Seagull have made an appearance. Can you spot them?

Why is bug always the hardest to find?
