[Maine-birds] golden eagle

My daughter suggested that I report this. About three weeks ago at CarryingPlace cove near West Quoddy Head I saw a large bird soaring. I got out of may car and watched it until it disappeared. I know Bald Eagles very well and have watched them for years. This bird flew differently. I could see no markings..but it was definitely an eagle. I immediately thought "Golden". My son had been in a nature group as a child when someone pointed out a Golden Eagle to him near this same location. Perhaps that was my trigger. BUT I can not explain this bird as anything else. I did not report, because no one was with me to verify. But I report it now in case someone else sited this bird last month in our area.
