Has anyone seen if they have posted the gender of the eaglets? I scrolled throught the info on the side and didn't spot it. As one is noticably larger, I am wondering if that one is male and the other two female.

I think the eaglets were too young to determine gender when they were banded.
Adult male eagles are smaller than females. I was thinking the puny one is a male, but perhaps it was just the last one to be hatched so it may be a bit behind in growth.
Following is a great suggestion from Jerseyboy2. Probably everyone else in the world except me already knows this ... but I had no idea you could enlarge stuff this way! Very helpful.
