A historical study not to be missed. On the Facebook page of Italian Chioccolatori Group you can read about an interesting conference to be held on 14 September in Montignoso (in the province of Massa-Carrara) and which will have as its main theme the hunting with the hen. The goal of this appointment is to better understand the use and use of these tools, but also and above all the fascinating history and traditions of such a particular hunting practice.
Interested people can go to the "Da Zeno" Hotel Restaurant in Via Foce Morta. At 20 is scheduled a dinner, while the actual conference will begin at 21. Two important personalities linked to this instrument will also be present.
It is Raffaele Morosini, passionate hunter and highly experienced craftsman who is able to create splendid wind calls for the turdidae hunting, And Mark Stagnaro, also a maker of hens and author of a fundamental technical manual (entitled "U và cun à ciocciua - The hunt with the hen) which collects anecdotes and testimonies. Their presence will be precious to say the least in making the conference even more exciting and thrilling a growing number of people.
