Rome, Termini Station, an area with a thousand problems.
In winter a million and a half birds create another one.
They are starlings («STURNUS VULGARIS» for ornithologists) who, with their droppings, terrorize the Roman citizens they soil clothes, dirty the pavements and provoke car accidents.
Rome Town Council in cooperation with LIPU has experimented with innovative systems for removing the birds. It is the first time that such action has been taken in a great European city.
After more than half a century perhaps the Romans will no longer see the coreographic flights which the flocks of birds perform in the skies of the Eternal City every year.
