Love the bird on the tree. This is also a good picture to demonstrate the distance rule in a confirous forest.

-Within 1-3 kilometers you should be able to pick out individual branches on trees.
-From 3-6 kilometers you should be able to pick out individual trees.
-From 6-9 kilometers trees will look like a shaggy carpet.
-From 9-12 kilometers you might be able to identify tree groupings through a shade of green.
-Typically farther than 12 kilometers will look like a blue haze.
