Hello Roland,
your pictures show how a birds appearance can change in seconds, at least on pictures. Only when knowing loction and putting all pictures (of presumable) the same bird together, I feel confident enough to agree with you: its a Golden Eagle.
For example with only the first picture available I thought it might well be a Marsh Harrier, that it unidentifiable to me and wait for others, so I can learn.
 
Dear Alexander, it´s the same bird on all of the pictures! Thanks a lot - also thanks to Butty!
Best regards, Christoph
