Inwood Hill Park Bald Eagles

When the Hudson River is frozen upstate and ice floes form, wintering Bald Eagles ride the ice up and down the lower Hudson.  With the cold weather we’ve been having, conditions are near perfect to see eagles from the Dyckman Fishing Pier in the southwest corner of Inwood Hill Park in Manhattan.  Today, we saw three adults and five juveniles drift by the pier.  Locals say the best times to watch are early in the morning from 8 to 10 a.m.
