Answer 1

I would say your best bet is Grafton, IL  (near East St Louis).  Go to the tourism website for Illinois or for Grafton.  Aside from that, you may find opportunities in Michigan or Wisconsin or Northern IL

"Grafton’s main industry today is tourism. The city is at the center of the region’s Bald Eagle watching area and proudly calls itself "The Winter Home of The Bald Eagle." Main Street is lined with restaurants, some antique, craft, and wine shops, and various other attractions, which makes Grafton a popular stopping place for bicyclists on the Sam Vadalabene Bike Trail or for visitors in search of fall color and Bald Eagles. During the warmer months, visitors can take advantage of the two rivers with boating, canoeing and parasailing opportunities. There are two river ferries in the Grafton area that provide transportation to St. Charles County, Missouri and Calhoun County. Five miles west of Grafton is Pere Marquette State Park, which is Illinois' largest and most popular state park.:
