If you want to go a little further, we have ALWAYS seen Bald Eagles from the Saugerties Lighthouse in Saugerties. They nest across the river, and they usually hang out in the trees on the little island straight off in the river and to the right (looking off the boardwalk just before you turn left to the lighthouse).
The last few times we have gone there, we have ALWAYS seen at least one eagle. A couple of weeks ago, we saw two in the same tree. Bring a scope if you want really great looks.
