Riserva Naturale Regionale Nazzano, Tevere-Farfa

A few kilometers from Rome, Nazzano Tevere-Farfa Regional Nature Reserve conceals an unexpected secret: a couple of Peregrines has chosen a ravine of a big overhanging wall on the river Tiber for its nest. Two researchers from the Association Ornisitalica, together with the staff of the Nature Reserve, have documented the event with extraordinary images coming from a webcam installed inside the nest and showing us the birth of the chicks, their first steps, the plumage changing during the growth, the attentions of the parents, and their first flight towards life.
