Not the appropriate trope. After one episode is way too soon to identify Arc Symbols. By definition, Arc Symbols appear multiple times over the course of a Story Arc, and a Story Arc spans multiple episodes. Also, the meaning of both the trees and the bird was clarified in the same episode they first appeared in (Arc Symbols page says that they are not explained until well after they first appear).
