Jim Speicher suggested I repost this with a different subject line so it 
did not get lost in the daily traffic of the listserve.

Jim,

Today about 11:30 am, I observed a single PERIGRINE FALCON in downtown 
Rockville perched on top of the giant red "51" sign.  I saw no other 
raptor in the vincinity but only observed the buildings/towers in area 
from north side.
