Some cherries are hidden under the 6x6 grid shown below. The numbers on the grid specify how many cherries lie under the four orthogonally adjacent cells to each given number. There can be only one cherry (or none) in any given position of the grid, and remember the number shown does not count its own cherry, if any, nor the diagonally adjacent positions.
2 1 1 2 1 2
1 3 3 2 3 1
2 3 2 2 3 2
2 1 3 2 1 2
1 3 1 1 2 2
1 2 1 1 1 1
Where are the cherries?

Does it present itself immediately or only after wasting
time on trying and erring, as I did?
