Die Weibchen der Gänsesäger brüten gerne in hochgelegenen Höhlen oder Halbhöhlen, mitunter an Kirchtürmen. Die Küken sind Nestflüchter und praktizieren den Kükensprung. Wenn die Kleinen herunterspringen, wirkt es, als ob sie mit den kleinen Stummelflügelchen bremsen wollten. Da sie aber ein so geringes Gewicht haben und der Federflaum bremsend wirkt, kommen sie in der Regel mit weicher Landung unten an.
