(a)In order for an animal to be brought as a Korban Olah, it must meet the requirements of the Torah (Vayikra 22:18-19) with regard to being unblemished (Tamus) and male (Zachrus). Similarly, a Korban Chatas must be unblemished and female.
(b)When a bird is offered for these Korbanos, though, it does not require those specifications. A bird offering may be male or female, and it is only invalidated by a missing limb and not by a blemish. (This limitation is learned from the verse, "Hakrivehu Na l'Fechasecha ha'Yirtzecha O ha'Yisa Fanecha..." - "[And if you offer a blind animal as a sacrifice, is this not evil? And if you offer a lame or a sick animal, is this not evil?] Try to offer it to your governor, will he be pleased with you, or will he find favor in you?..." (Malachi 1:8) - RASHI to Chulin 23a DH bi'Vehemah.)

21)[line 39]ìùòø ð÷ðåøL'SHA'AR NIKANOR- the Gate of Nikanor, the eastern gate of the Azarah, named for the man who donated the brass doors of the gate (see Yoma 38a). Although all of the other gates of the Azarah had the Kedushah of the Azarah, Sha'ar Nikanor only had the Kedushah of Har ha'Bayis. (For a discussion of the different levels of Kedushah of the Beis ha'Mikdash compound, see Background to Zevachim 105:14.) The Chachamim arranged this so that a Metzora could stick his head, right hand and right foot into the Azarah while standing under the archway of the gate.
