Golden Eagles have been one the most trying but also rewarding subjects to photograph. I've only tried so far in Norway during the winter. These birds are very wild and are very skittish. Any sound, light or movement and they are gone. The location is in the South of Norway, not too far from Kristiansand - a clearing in some woods. In order for the eagles to be comfortable enough to come down into the clearing, you need to be in the hide before dawn, and not leave until well after dusk. Even in the winter, that's a long shift. It gets worse though, as you have be still and silent the whole time and yet somehow keep your concentration. The reward is natural behaviour.
