Male and female eye difference
Eagle Fact for Saturday, December 1, 2012
Since we've been discussing the eye of the eagle this past week, I thought it was a good time to tell you in how the eagle eye helps us identify the male from the female.
Notice in this photo (from Norfolk website) that the female beak extends to the back of the eye and the male's beak stops at the pupil. Also, if you look at the depth of the beak, the female's beak is deeper from top to bottom than the male.
The female's head is also larger, because the female is the larger of the two birds. :) Fun stuff
