„Created in 2018 to commemorate the centenary of Poland’s independence, the design was planted in the Pomorskie province near the village of Lipusz, in an area that was struck by the so-called “hurricane of the century” in August 2017. […]
Designed as a forest planting project, **the background of the eagle emblem consists of roughly 67,000 pine trees, while the eagle itself is formed from about 23,000 birches. The claws and crown are made up of approximately 400 larches, chosen deliberately for their golden autumn color.**
Around 3,000 people took part in planting the trees, including scouts, local residents and municipal officials from the region, at the Lipusz Forest District state forest office. […]
Covering about four hectares, the forest eagle is the largest tree-based design of its kind in Poland and among the largest in the world.“

That’s not just national pride it’s eco art on a legendary scale. Poland really said go big and grow home.

This is beautiful. Poland has once again shown that it can shine even in the most ordinary things, such as decorating trees.

While the idea is [not exactly new](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forest_swastika) this one is done way better.
