In Naples there are 5 breeding pairs of Peregrine Falcon and one of these nests in a large flowerpot on the 17th floor of the Naples Telecom tower. In this area near the port and the railway station there are many high-rise buildings. In 2007, thanks to Telecom’s employees, a web cam was installed close to the nest to record the life and diet of the two pulli.
