The White-tailed Eagle is a social animal without a territory. White-tailed Eagles can nest peacefully side by side. They lay their eggs in high nests, usually in trees near wetlands or on steep surfaces along coastal areas. Adult White-tailed Eagles have no natural enemies except for humans.

Sometimes they steal food from other birds of prey.
