[This short note provides the first ever evidence of the successful breeding of the Golden eagle Aquila chrysaetos in the Pratomagno massif, an “anti-Appenines” mountain chain straddling the provinces of Florence and Arezzo (Tuscany), outside the known breeding area. The couple have successfully nested three years after its first observation; in previous years the appearance of the species had become more regular]. [Article in Italian]
