Deer

Mnemonic

A canopy and a helicopter are being compared by a deer. The deer is standing very still (as deer do) and looking very slowly between the empty canopy and the helicopter sitting next to it.

Picture the deer comparing the two structures. It probably has no idea what they are, but it's trying very hard to understand what it's seeing anyway.
