Thanks so much! It was so great to catch up after such a long time (even though it doesn't feel long) and I'm happy to hear your English studies and everything else is going well. The time sped by today so I didn't get to anything I planned, but I hope that's okay and you still found our conversation useful. See you soon!

Giuseppe and I spoke about so many different topics and it was a lot of fun for me. As I said in the lesson, his English is getting better all the time!

As always it was a fun lesson with Giuseppe. He's making good progress with his grammar and talking. Keep it up!

    Wind, wind, wind! Recently I've worked to improve my astrophotography equipment. Basically, I've made a powerbox for the mount and for two dew-heaters, but for a flat-box as well. The process it's been quite short, and I got my powerbox using a plastic tool-box and three lithium-batteries. So, after many works, you only expect to use them and you wait for the right night, a night without moon or at least a small moon-phase, in order to not have too much light pollution (I know, I'm living in a town, so it's really hard not having light pollution!!!!). Anyway, when you think the night is right, you soon discover another problem.... wind!!! Arrgh! After many cloudy nights, having even only one clear night is gold, but with the wind is always a big deal for astrophotography. But, as always, there's a solution. A windshield!!! Obviously, someone would tell, but wich windshield??? A tent? A solid wall? And what if I like to move it? The solution isn't so simple, but I think it might be practicable using Polionda sheets merged together to form a barrier for the wind. Polionda is really light and easy-portable so it should be very easy to use it every time I need it. For now, I've just made a small project on paper, but soon I'll buy all I need to make it, so stay tuned, I'll get back really soon. Bye

    Buzzard, buzzard, buzzard again As you know, I've always been really fascinated by raptors and the common buzzard is one of my favourite birds of prey. In my photographic blind it's quite easy to take some pictures of them, as this time. But there're some considerations to do. During the wait I heard the little owls' voices, despite I haven't seen them anymore in their nest. Maybe, and I hope so much, that they have found a new nest for their breeding season. The same for the peregrine falcons, that I was hearing during the photographic session, but I couldn't understand from they came. Finally, looking outside the blind I saw them flying near a group of trees, pretty far from their "house", perhaps they were hunting or simply they were going somewhere, but I can't know. Before going home, I went to check their house; I mean the mountain where they make the nest. Actually I don't know where's exactly the nest, so I can only guessing where it is. Looking with a spotting-scope I saw only one of them: it was on a rock formation, maybe waiting for its mate, or taking a sunbath, who knows. This year I going to try to observe the Peregrine falcons using my portable blind, because I've put a perch and I want see if they go there. I know, it'll be an hard work, but it's the only way to not be seen.

    Pensieri del Sabato

    Oggi era appena un altro Sabato. Mi sono svegliare alle nove e mezzo. Dopo ho fatto colazione, sono andato alla palestra e allora il negozio della pintura. Quando sono tornato alla casa, non ho fatto tanto. Era piuttosto un giorno semplice. Come per domani, sarà più dello stesso. Mi bisogno scrivo più nell’ Italiano e anche parlare più.

    Oggi è appena un altro sabato. Mi sono svegliato alle nove e mezzo. Dopo ho fatto colazione, sono andato in palestra e al negozio di pintura (forse pittura??). Quando sono tornato a casa, non ho fatto molto. Era un giorno come tanti, come domani che sarà più o meno lo stesso. Ho bisogno di scrivere di più in italiano e parlare di più.

    Can someone explain me why, please? I'm reading a book, The life of buzzards, because that argument interesting me and to improve my English. In a page there's this period: Adult buzzards in western Europe moult and replace their feathers each year, a process spread over 5-6 month period during the warm months from spring to early autumn. Although no specific studies have been made of British birds, one may assume that our birds differ little in timing from those breeding at similar latitudes in Southern Sweden that were studied by Magnus Sylven. In the second part of this period has been used the present perfect tense (no specific studies have been made of British birds), then the past simple ( that were studied by), and I don't understand the reason, because I would have used the present perfect in the second part too: … in Southern Sweden that have been studied by… Why?

    How to don't think in italian I'm studying English, mostly I'm trying to improve my speaking and listening skills, but while I'm speaking I often think in Italian before to speak in English, so I speak how I when speak Italian. Everytime that I speak to myself, in English of course, I understand that I'm thinking in Italian, but I can't to stop me. Is it normal? Is there a way to don't think before? Thanks for any help Giuseppe
