The habitat is important for living organisms in terms of food and shelter that it provides. To understand the impact of anthropogenic pressure on the feeding habits of the birds, one-year survey was conducted in three old areas at Assiut governorate (Assiut city, El-Fath and Manfalot districts), Egypt during 2018.  A total of 23 species of birds belonging to 22 genera spread over 17 families and 9 orders. Passeriformes is the largest order of birds with 12 spp. Followed by Columbiformes (2 species), Coracuformes (2 species) and Falconiformes (2 species). While Charadrufomes (one specie), Strigiformes, Ciconiformes, Upupiformes and Gruiformes (one spp., each) were recorded during the study period.The dominant feeding habits was Insectivorous (10 species), followed by Carnivore (5 species), Omnivore (5 species) and Granivore (2 species). The low representation of Piscivorous (one species). Moreover, the study revealed that of the total (18 species) was recorded as resident birds and (5 species) were recorded as migratory birds. The present study would provide for baseline information on the state of environment of the Assiut governorate, Egypt and help in future development plan for the region.
