Size It Up answer: November 3
The five Mixed silhouettes for November 3, with the true sizes. If you have not played yet, this page is a spoiler — play these five first, then come back to argue with the numbers.
Day 61 ran from a toco toucan (56 cm) to Ceres (940 km). The widest gap was round 2, Brachiosaurus against Great Sphinx of Giza, at 3.3×; the closest call was round 1, Fire Hydrant against Toco Toucan, only 1.3× apart — the kind of round that separates a 90 from a 60.
