I suppose they could do a fake dead maple tree; that would at least be plausible year-round.
But honestly, I’d rather they just not even try to disguise it than to go for the conifer route (especially since, as I should’ve mentioned initially, the things are substantially higher than all the surrounding trees).
Meanwhile, in my area they disguise them as conifers.
…in a deciduous forest.
Counterpoint: a fake maple tree will really stick out in the winter (if you live somewhere with distinct seasons)

There is one like that sort of near me. It is alone in a large clearing and stands out like a sore thumb.
Ours was a bad cedar disguise in the middle of a parking lot. Maybe if the cedar didn’t have a round top.
