The magnificent American icon, the bald eagle, has fought its way back from the brink of extinction in the state because of New York's bald eagle recovery programs. Bald eagles can now be seen in many areas throughout the state. If you are in search of bald eagles any time near Clifton Park, it would be smart to go look on Crescent Road which stretches between Route 9 and Cohoes on the Mohawk River. I have seen eagles there many times. I personally love bald eagles and I am glad to be seeing more and more of them as time goes on. Just recently while driving on Route 7 in Latham I saw two bald eagles soaring just above the Albany airport. One flew directly over my car. It was a wonderful thing to see. Keep your eyes peeled for bald eagles. There are more around than you think. Feel free to share stories of eagles that you saw locally.
