Why does orange 5 go before the 45-count cards?

It is the short route that starts the lower decoration traffic; the yellow 1/white 35 link then opens room before the long white and dark stacks.

What remains after the decorations disappear?

The branch, right ornament, red songbird, dark musical notes and white canvas pixels still need matching routes before the empty-board clear.

Open the Super Hard red songbird scene with orange 5 and the yellow 1/white 35 link, then pace the branch, ornament, notes and final red body.

If the player asks you to sign in, open the video on YouTube instead.

Tap orange 5 first and wait for its short convoy to return.
Use yellow 1 with linked white 35, then add brown 26 and dark purple 11 as holes reopen.
Route orange 4/5 and brown 32 separately; keep white 45 and dark 45 out of the buffer initially.
Use dark purple 50 only after the branch route is moving, then alternate white 45 with red-brown 20.
Clear yellow key, pink/green lower ornaments and small red pixels with pink 30 and green returns.
When the brown branch separates, route brown 7/4, pink 11/6 and linked white cards before another long dark stack.
Clear the right ornament and branch pieces with green 19, orange 5 and white 50/45 while preserving one open slot.
At the late bird phase, use pink 3, white 50, red 22/40 and dark 1 to reduce the white canvas and notes.
Finish the red body with red 39, dark 15/45, green 1 and pink 1; wait for the notes and final white fragments.
Confirm the empty board after the red songbird, musical notes and white pixels leave in the verified MP4.

Colors in this level:

Brown, Dark purple, Yellow, White, Orange, Red-brown, Pink, Green, Cyan

Opening all long 45-count cards and dark 50 before the short orange and pink routes return fills the red buffer.
Stopping after the branch or ornament clears leaves the red bird, music notes and white canvas fragments.

Board notes 5 details

Layout: A red songbird with a brown wing/tail sits on a brown diagonal branch against a white canvas, with dark musical notes and a colorful ornament cluster on the right. Yellow, pink, green, orange and white decoration fragments sit below; a yellow key and cyan key marker are visible. Opening cards include brown 26, dark 11, yellow 1 linked to white 35, brown 32, orange 5/4/5, dark 50, white 45, dark 45 and red-brown 20.
Goal: Clear the lower decorations, branch, right ornament, red songbird, dark notes and white canvas fragments until the final empty-board clear.
Opening: Tap orange 5 first, then yellow 1 with linked white 35. Wait for that short route before brown 26 and dark 11; add orange 4/5 and brown 32 while staggering the many 45-count cards.
Danger Zone: Opening white 45, dark 45 and dark 50 together before orange 5, yellow 1 and pink 30 return fills the red buffer and strands branch or ornament fragments.
Mechanics: The Super Hard board clears lower decorations before the branch and ornament, leaving the red bird, dark notes and white canvas as the late target. Late cards include pink 3/1, dark 1/15, green 1, red 39 and white 50/45.
