to Maryland & DC Birding

Observed from Bldg 33 August 30 at about 12:30 PM and continuing for at least 10 minutes.

Guess altitude to be at least 200', probably higher.

The two birds were actively circling together, with occasional dives and dips. Drifted northward over time until out of sight.

Vultures and crows are a common sight from my 4th floor location, but these are the first eagle sightings for me in the 7-1/2 years I've been there.
