Default Rough-legged hawk?

The bird in title can look very much like a young eagle or a golden eagle. One visited our backyard (in Needham, MA) back in Feb./March, sat on a branch for about 10 minutes and flew off. Our identification fit with not only the characteristics of the bird, but also for its range, season and reported sightings that week in Eastern MA. A Peterson's field guide is a great tool for correct identification.
