Golden Eagle Family A family of golden eagles, a couple with last years juvenile eagle. I photographed them from a photo hide in Bulgaria. I spend two full days in the hide to get photos of these elusive birds. We had to go in when it was dark and we got out when it was dark again. Such a shy animal! It was well worth it - the eagles arrived on both days in perfect timing - when the light warm warm but still plenty. Here is a longer version of the story with some BTS photos too.<br />

The Golden Eagle is one of the best known birds of prey in the Northern Hemisphere. Like all eagles, it belongs to the family Accipitridae. Once widespread across the Holarctic, it has disappeared from many of the more heavily populated areas.
