Now that the Hays bald eagles have moved throughout the river, the previous eagle viewing web site on the bike path has no eagles to see so I requested Dana Nesiti at Eagles of Hays PA on Fb, “The place is the most effective place to view the Glen Hazel eagles’ nest?”

Dana recommends the Homestead facet of the river on the Costco again lot (1000 Sandcastle Dr, West Homestead, PA 15120. Pin drop: 40.402230, -79.922830). He writes:

Finest spot is Costco’s again lot by their loading dock [see pin drop map here]. The nest is way away and you’ll need binoculars or a recognizing scope to see it. [While there] You get to see fly ins and outs and may see the eaglets when they’re up. We spoke with Costco administration and they’re OK with individuals viewing the nest from their again lot so long as we hold it clear and don’t intrude with the truck visitors. … That’s the place I’ve been posting the pics from.

That can assist you discover the nest tree from that vantage level, Dana included a photograph of the hillside with the nest tree circled in yellow and this rationalization of what to search for.

In case you park again there [at Costco] and stroll to the nook and look throughout the river you will note a spot had been there was a landslide. On the prime of the landslide to the left is a sycamore tree that they’re in (circled in connected picture).

Word that because the bushes leaf out it could change into tougher to see the nest.
