The nest at Bashakill had one large eaglet in it when I viewed it on June 6th. It may have fledged by now. One of the adults was sitting in a tree near the nest. This nest is viewed from the boat launch area on the east side of the kill. I also saw an adult fly over the marsh from Haven Road the same day.

LoraKim.... Best chance to see a Bald Eagle right now is just about equal anywhere, although the farther upriver you go, i.e., Putnam and Orange counties ... the better the chances. They are almost certainly all out of their nests by now so there are probably 25-30 newly-fledged immatures between Westchester County and Albany, plus an equal numbers of adults, and maybe even more yearlings birds. The best strategy might be to just drive north and visit riverside parks and peninsulas and see if they come by. Most adults are quite actively engaged with their fledglings so you may even see more than one.

Dear List, I have a guest from another country and they would like to see a Bald Eagle. Is there a location in Westchester County where we would have a good chance to see one? We were at Croton Point Park yesterday to look with no luck. Thanks!
