Plastic garden owls will keep most away and I always lay rubber snakes on the floor of my porch each year to keep them from building nests in my ferns. Good Luck!
sure get one of those plastic owls they sell at lawn ornaments section of like walmart and put it up and turn it every few days so the birds will think an owl has invaded their area and they will leave . good luck it really works .
In the States I seen inflatable alegators placed around golf coarse pools and was told it helps keep geese ans ducks from landing. also plastic owls placed around the patio seems to keep most other birds away especially seagulls and pigeons
There are a number of ways to repel unwanted birds. From chemical repellents to noise makers. This website has a good number of items that will help keep those pests out of your pool area.

Hang 2 or 3 disposable aluminum pie pans on strings above it. The birds will be afraid of the movement from the breeze and the sun's reflection. This will keep them away! (it keeps them out of my garden)
I hope this works for you!
Plastic owls, pans, snakes and the like all work for a time, longer if you keep moving them around. Eventually the birds will get used to them. From being in the business of selling bird deterrents in a garden shop for many years, I can tell you what works best is the Osprey or Eagle Jackite. It's a windsock that flies like a real bird of prey and scares birds away. The flying action keeps fooling them. Plus, they look way cool!
