I had an  adult Bald Eagle over the Rockville Sportsplex about 3 weeks ago.  
It was  fairly low but I presumed it was a migrant (though heading SW) but 
perhaps  not?

Hi Clive, Michael and all,
 The bird(s) you saw may have been migrants but may just as likely  have been 
one of the many that are now nesting in our vicinity. There is a  new nesting 
pair on Little Seneca Lake at Black Hill Regional Park, another at  
Triadelphia Reservoir, another at Rocky Gorge Reservoir and of coarse the pair  on Conn 
Island. Perhaps others. They are really expanding their range locally as  
well as nationally. Always nice to see more eagles, especially when you're  
standing around in a public place and you can point them out to  non-birders!
