Well they were all released up around Glenveagh national park as far as I know so up around that area is your best bet. Having said that they take up pretty large territories so there's a chance you'll see them elsewhere. I saw one in achill 2 christmases ago.

have a look at this site:http://www.goldeneagle.ie/

You can see where all the sitings have been on there.

Apparently you've a better chance of spotting them in the afternoon as the air has warmed up better to generate thermals which they need to soar on.
