First I started off with a very poor quality side by side view of all 3 races screens.

Then I placed a line on top of the Terran UI going through all 3 of the UI's completely.

After all of this I felt like those were also my error or something. It didn't seem like that could be correct, but at the same time I always felt like it was true that Zerg could see less. I kept going from there. I did 2 full tests for the Races.
Test One:

For this test I used the same map for each of the tests. I would place my Hydralisks in the same (or at least I tried to) positions. I felt like this test doesn't really show anything because I probably made an error in the positioning somewhere. I used the infestation pit as Hotkey 3 so I could position the screen in the same location for the screenshots each time.

I felt like this test showed that Zerg could see less than the other races. But I also felt like the angle of the Hydras effects it a lot. I felt like this test was ruined due to human error so I did another similar test.

Here is the Result for it: + Show Spoiler +.
Here is my attempt at numbering it out: + Show Spoiler +
For the Zerg test I felt like I had messed up so I did an extra one: + Show Spoiler +

Test one did back my idea that Zerg could see less.... but It was too full of errors for me to accept that. I did another Test.
Test Two:+ Show Spoiler +
For test 2 I used supply depots (No chance of error there!). They are positioned in the same location for all of the races. After looking I double checked the Zerg because I thought maybe I messed up or something (I didn't). I used the hotkey 3 for my factory to center the screenshot each time. (The tank is not in the same spot every time ignore that)

After looking at all three it becomes very obvious that the Zerg UI is blocking a lot. And if you look closely there is one depot that is showing its health bar in the bottom right for Protoss and Terran, but for Zerg it is blocked by the UI.

The Zerg UI is too bulky and it blocks a lot of things. And after looking at this I found it very shocking that it blocks entire health bars! I feel this is a wake up call for Blizzard to shrink the Zerg UI to better match that of Terran and Protoss.
