-The African harrier-hawk feeds on lizards, snakes, insects, small mammals, bird eggs, as fruit of the oil palm.  They find their prey from flight close to the ground, or by climbing along tree trunks and running on branches.  While on tree it will investigate holes and cavities for prey, holding on to a nest or cave opening with one leg and poking the head inside to search; if prey is found it will grab it with the free foot and remove it.  They have been seen preying on the young of [[hamerkop]], as well as searching large hamerkop nests for other species which have made nests there<ref>http://www.extremenaturetours.co.za/Birds/gymnogene.htm</ref>, and they have been recently discovered to prey upon lemurs<ref>https://www.semanticscholar.org/paper/Polyboroides-radiatus-predation-attempts-on-Brockman/3c96af3676b7e93e422fa0288b868f6c86402692</ref>.  On large hanging nests such as those made by weaver birds, it will often hanging upside down while searching<ref>https://www.kapama.com/rangerblog/african-harrier-hawk-gymnogene/</ref>.
