Default Is it a he or a she?

I don't think you can easily sex a bald eagle. Are you sure this is a "he"?

I wasn't implying if the eagle was a he or she. I have no idea.

a boat/ship either. But most would say "she's a beautiful vessel" if they saw one that struck them as being nice.

It's simply a figure of speech.

Default What is gender of the eagle

It is much easier to tell the gender of eagles when they are together. The female is about 30% larger than the male. There are other telltale methods by looking closely at the hooding of the eyes, but more difficult to discern.
