"feather:actual owl ratio" got me cackling

I was trying to think of a good way to express it, and I thought that's really what it is.

GG is the largest owl in the world by actual measurement, but it's like a Cornish hen under its coat!

It's the 3 kids in a trench coat, but more like just 1 kid on stilts.

They're such ugly little vultures under all that floof, I love it
