  • Likes to swim;
  • Spends most of the time on riverbank.
Breeding:
  • Sometime takes over nests of other birds;
  • Builds nest in holes in cliffs, caves, trees or buildings;
  • Always nearby water (within 1,000 yards);
  • Clutch: 5-11 eggs;
  • Young birds (newly hatched) leave after 6 hours.
Damage:
  • Large flocks can damage grain crops;
  • Aggressive, Noisy;
  • Feaces build-up in dams and around trees can cause severe damage resulting in fish and trees dying.

 As with the Hadeda Ibis, the Eagle Eye is very successful in relocating Egyptian geese.

They are very sensitive to the Eagle Eye and will quickly move to a friendlier environment.
