I think they just had this thread the other day. It's a bit of pine branch stuck on the mounted camera, but the 360 degree camera cuts it off in other angles when piecing the photos together. You can see the low pine trees down the alley that the van or whatever passed.

In fact, if you scoot the view two clicks to the west, you can see that the "object" is between the camera's lens and a telephone pole. It's definitely not in the sky.

It's either a pine branch or Gamera... We may never know.

My apologies if this was already posted.. I looked but didn't see it. Feel free to close.

Looks like a snow plow scrapped together alot of snow a dirt in the sky, but for some reason my intuition is telling my differently.

rockasarerocks is back! Good to have u back, man. We need some balance around here. No idea what the object is. Looks like an asteroid, but hell, wut do I know....

Ha, Gamera, somebody here is a fan of cheesy Japa Monster Movies.

Geez, I followed this thing more miles, err kilometers, and it must be a branch as someone has already mentioned.

It first appears here and, if you follow the Via degli Acquaviva trail along the Google SpyCam mobile route it had just cleared an area that was full of trees.
The cam must have capture a closeup of a branch and repeated that section for several more shots.

It's obviously some kind of camera clitch. Like someone said, it looks like a close-up of a twig.

Here is another view two "positions" to the left of the OP's view. You can see the object is magically in front of the utility pole.

It's a broken of branch in front of the camera.
You can clearly see this here:
