We will be on a guided tour most of the time (which will focus mainly on art and architecture, not nature), so our birding opportunities will be few and of short duration. However, we might be able to take some time for birding in Rome, as well as in Tuscany in and south of Florence, and would like to learn of any good spots for brief visits in those areas. Also, we will be boating near Sorrento and the Isle of Capri one day, and so can watch for birds around the water there. Any guidance is appreciated!
