I'll post any news we have about the pairs in Bologna here :snowflake2:

We have a new thread in the Italian forum for a pair of peregrines in Alessandria, in the north of Italy :boogie

. I've included a map from Google to show where it is.

The pair are Eco (male) and Bora (female) and they have taken up residence in a tower (about 106 m/320 ft tall) on the Duomo. It is definitely known that they have nested since 2011 but local information suggests that they've actually been there for about 5/6 years. There is more information about the site and how they were discovered on the Italian forum http://www.birdcam.it/forum/viewtopic.php?t=6071 (in Italian) but I will give the most important information here or anyone who wants more specific information can ask me for a translation via PM (I'm a tramslator by profession so it's no problem for me).
The pair has raised 5 young successfully to date and are currently incubating again. Unfortunately, there is no cam on the site although this may change in the future.

I'll keep you informed of any new, relevant info.

Firenze: the cam has not been activated by the difficulty of access to the nest and bureaucratic problems but the couple is always present near the nest
here http://www.birdcam.it/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=5224 some news and photos of the nest

and this morning after months that I had not seen them and I thought they had left the nest.......a wonderful surprise :egg20:
