Yes, I love the Birds Eye View. My great-grandparents were buried in a grove on theie farm in Minnesota. Now days someone else owns the farm and the grove is gone. Their monument sits on the edge of a cornfield. along the road. I located it via the Birds Eye View. As you said, it is not yet available for all of my ancestor's areas.
