Are you sure it wasn't a Short-eared Owl? Much more likely as Eagle Owls are non-native releases/escapes and are really not all that widespread...

Hi there . If a short eared owl is about the same size as a golden eagle then it might have been a short eared owl. It was an eagle owl.

There are probably more Eagle Owls at large thsn White-tailed Eagles. | | |
