The golden parakeet (Guaruba guarouba), highly sought after in the illegal pet trade for its striking yellow plumage, is at risk of extinction in the Brazilian Amazon.
After being locally extinct for a century in Belém, the host city of next year’s COP30 climate summit, it’s being reintroduced by conservationists who have so far released 50 individuals into the wild since 2018.
The golden parakeet plays an important role in ecosystem services, especially in seed dispersal of the popular açaí berry and up to 22 other plant species native to the Amazon.
Conservationists say the project is an ongoing success, as the released golden parakeets have adapted well to life outside captivity and have even reproduced in the wild; the goal is to reintroduce another 50 birds over the next two years.

I’m asked occasionally if I take tourist-like pics on my travels.
Yes, but if there’s a twist about, I’ll grab it.
Lisbon’s Belem Tower was built as a point of embarkation and disembarkation for Portuguese explorers in the early 1500s.
The industrial port is much newer.

Hier le 8 mai, la flamme olympique venue de Grèce arrive dans une de ses anciennes colonies phocéennes, Massalia !
Alors, posté au Mont Rose, j''admire le Belem, porteur de la flamme...
Il longe la Corniche Kennedy, passant sous la Bonne Mère, pour atteindre les plages du Prado...

500 años de presencia judía en Brasil
🇧🇷 Brasil y su historia judía: La presencia judía en Brasil se remonta al siglo XVI. Muchos judíos que huían de la Inquisición se refugiaron en Brasil, con algunos como Gaspar de Gama acompañando a Pedro Álvarez Cabral en 1500. A lo largo de los años, recibieron libertad religiosa en territorios controlados por los holandeses, especialmente en Recife, donde en 1636 se construyó la primera sinagoga de América, Kahal Zur Israel. A pesar de la represión, la comunidad judía se expandió y jugó un rol crucial en la agricultura y el comercio, particularmente en la plantación de azúcar. Con el tiempo, tras la independencia de Brasil en 1822, surgieron nuevas comunidades judías en lugares como Belem y Manaos, y a principios del siglo XX llegaron inmigrantes judíos europeos, aumentando la población. A pesar de periodos de antisemitismo, la comunidad sigue siendo activa hoy, con instituciones como el Canal Mosaico y la Universidad de São Paulo promoviendo el estudio de la cultura judía. A lo largo de estos 500 años, la presencia judía ha sido clave en la formación de la identidad y la historia de Brasil.
🇺🇸 Brazil and its Jewish history: The Jewish presence in Brazil dates back to the 16th century. Many Jews fleeing the Inquisition took refuge in Brazil, with some like Gaspar de Gama accompanying Pedro Álvarez Cabral in 1500. Over the years, they received religious freedom in territories controlled by the Dutch, especially in Recife, where the first synagogue in the Americas, Kahal Zur Israel, was built in 1636. Despite repression, the Jewish community grew and played a crucial role in agriculture and trade, particularly in sugar plantations. Over time, after Brazil's independence in 1822, new Jewish communities emerged in places like Belem and Manaus, and by the early 20th century, Jewish European immigrants arrived, boosting the population. Despite periods of antisemitism, the community remains active today with institutions like the Mosaico Channel and the University of São Paulo promoting the study of Jewish culture. Over these 500 years, the Jewish presence has been key in shaping the identity and history of Brazil.

Bar Azul, 1996 / Instagram de Luiz Braga
"É na risada histérica que pula do espelho quando me olho pela manhã, mas tem que ser esse espelho enferrujado, que vejo todo o Guamá. Existe apenas esse espelho, essa posição, essa luz, esse horário, esse quarto e essa garota órfã no mundo, em nenhum outro momento ou lugar essa combinação se repetirá. Só assim poderei evocar e invocar o meu Guamá, esse de tantas memórias profundas.
(...) Cada amanhecer fazia da vovó nossa protagonista, tudo era mais brando perto dela, não que fosse uma pessoa que nos mimasse, mas era uma mulher que preenchia qualquer vazio, o vazio que faz eco, engana. Mas ela conhecia a gente em tudo. Vinda do Acará, uma cidade no interior do Pará, chegou no Guamá quando o bairro estava explodindo de gente do Nordeste ou dos interiores ao redor. Nessa época, os próprios moradores abriam ruas e faziam melhorias no bairro, não mudou muito.
(...) Não lembro de ter ido muito longe do Guamá, sempre moramos aqui. Era meu continente, meu planeta. Uma trama de casas de alvenaria e madeira, de um andar ou dois, vendas de todo tipo, um crescimento desordenado como as ideias da minha cabeça.
(...) Vovó tinha a cara do Guamá, desse que vejo no espelho antigo.
