The Imperial amazon ( Amazona imperialis ) is one of the most endangered bird species in the world. This is my own recording about the birds. To be face to face with these wonderful creatures was a once in a lifetime oportunity to me. I will never forget.
God bless Dominica and the amazons.
On May 10, 2010, the Forestry Division of the Government of Dominica made history with the birth of the fist chick of the endangered Sisserou Parrot (Amazona imperialis) in captivity on the island. This is the first recorded birth of this type anywhere in the world, and augers well for the future of this parrot which is Dominicas National Symbol.
Stephen Durand, Assistant Forest Officer, gives details of this momentous event in a statement to the local media on May 13, 2010, as part of activities to commemorate the Caribbean Endemic Bird Festival on Dominica:

There are around 372 different parrot species.
Most parrots live in tropical areas.
Parrots have curved bills (beaks), strong legs and clawed feet.
Parrots are often brightly coloured.
Parrots are believed to be one of the most intelligent bird species.
Some species are known for imitating human voices.
Most parrot species rely on seeds as food. Others may eat fruit, nectar, flowers or small insects.
Parrots such as the budgerigar (budgie) and cockatiel are popular as pets.
Some parrot species can live for over 80 years.
There are 21 different species of cockatoo.
Cockatoos usually have black, grey or white plumage (feathers).
New Zealand is home to some very unique parrots including the kea, kaka and kakapo.
Keas are large, intelligent parrots that live in alpine areas of New Zealand’s South Island. They are the world’s only alpine parrot and are known for their curious and sometimes cheeky behaviour near ski fields where they like to investigate bags, steal small items and damage cars.
Kakapos are critically endangered flightless parrots, as of 2010 only around 130 are known to exist. They are active at night (nocturnal) and feed on a range of seeds, fruit, plants and pollen. Kakapos are also the world’s heaviest parrot.
The flag of Dominica features the sisserou parrot.

In this brief video you can find seven little known facts about Dominica.
More information about the video content bellow:
1. Dominica's lush tropical landscape is home to many rare plants and animals. Among those is Dominica's national bird, the Imperial Amazon or Sisserou Parrot, which is also featured right in the center of their national flag. As of 2010, the Imperial Amazon was on the Red List of endangered species, with a population between merely 150 to 250 birds.
2. In Dominica there is the second largest in the world “Boiling lake”, and also many sulphur springs, freshwater lakes, waterfalls and rivers. The hot spring is approximately 200 feet (60 metres) across and is located barely six and a half miles from the capital city of Roseau. A flooded fumarole, the center of the lake is hot enough to be actively boiling, and even at the edges, temperatures are near the boiling point.
3. The first island sighted by Christopher Columbus on his second voyage to the New World was Dominica at which he arrived Sunday or Dominica in Latin, on 3 November 1493.
4. Dominica takes the first place among the best Islands to visit in the Caribbean and among the top of ten worldwide, according to rankings compiled by experts from the “National Geographic Traveler”. Dominica is among the five best places in the world for diving and among the ten places – for whale watching. Dominica has two marine reservations, four national parks, one of which was included in the UNESCO list of the World Heritage List as the only one of its kind in the Eastern Caribbean.
5. The capital of this wonderful country is Roseau; it had a population of 15,000 in 2014.
6. For many years, despite claiming the island as theirs, the French made no attempt to settle it. In fact, one of the only (recorded) Europeans who even visited Dominica was a French missionary by the name of Raymond Breton, and he didn't do so until the mid 17th century. In 1660 the English and French agreed to leave Dominica and St. Vincent unsettled, letting the Caribs continue to live unmolested and declaring the island neutral territory. The first European settlers to come to the island arrived as a result of 'La Gaoulé,' a revolt of poor white smallholders on Martinique. 12 years later, the French government took control of the island, officially folding it into the empire.
7. The second Pirates film, "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest" and the third film "At World's End" all had major scenes filmed in Dominica.

Imperial amazon
The imperial amazon (Amazona imperialis), also known as the sisserou, is a parrot found only on the Caribbean island of Dominica, specifically within the 90 km2 (35 sq mi) of mountainous rainforest near the Morne Diablotins and the Morne Trois Pitons National Park.
Description
The imperial amazon measures an average of 48 cm (19 in) in length. With males weighing an average of 900 g (32 oz) and females 650 g (23 oz), the species is large for its genus.
Being of the family Psittacidae, the sisserou has zygodactyl feet and a thick, hooked bill with a muscular tongue. This bill is fashioned in such a way that using its hinged mandibles and tongue, the sisserou can easily move food around in its mouth.
Males and females have identical plumage. Adult plumage is very colorful and mostly darkly colored: the chest is a dark shade of purple, and the upper-parts and feathers are a dark shade of green, with black-edged feather tips. The eye-ring is dark brown, with the eye being a mix of orange and red. Juvenile appearance does not differ much, with a higher occurrence of green plumage and strictly brown eyes.

Dominica
Coordinates: 15°25′N 61°20′W / 15.417°N 61.333°W / 15.417; -61.333
Dominica (/ˌdɒmɪˈniːkə/ DOM-i-NEE-kə;French: Dominique; Island Carib: Wai‘tu kubuli), officially the Commonwealth of Dominica, is an island country in the Lesser Antilles region of the Caribbean Sea, south-southeast of Guadeloupe and northwest of Martinique. Its area is 750 square kilometres (290 sq mi) and the highest point is Morne Diablotins, at 1,447 metres (4,747 ft) elevation. The population was 72,301 at the 2014 census. The capital is Roseau, located on the leeward side of the island.
The island was originally inhabited by the Kalinago/Arawak and later colonised by the Europeans, predominately by the French, who arrived at the island on Sunday, 3 November 1493 ("Sunday" = "Domenica" in Italian). Great Britain took it over in 1763 after the Seven Years' War and gradually established English as the official language. The island republic gained independence in 1978.
Its name is pronounced with emphasis on the third syllable, related to its former Dominique. Dominica has been nicknamed the "Nature Isle of the Caribbean" for its unspoiled natural beauty. It is the youngest island in the Lesser Antilles, still being formed by geothermal-volcanic activity, as evidenced by the world's second-largest hot spring, Boiling Lake. The island has lush mountainous rainforests, and is the home of many rare plants, animals, and bird species. There are xeric areas in some of the western coastal regions, but heavy rainfall occurs inland. The Sisserou parrot (also known as the imperial amazon), is found only on Dominica and is the island's national bird and features on the national flag. Dominica's economy depends on tourism and agriculture.

In this brief video you can find seven little known facts about Dominica.
More information about the video content bellow:
1. Dominica's lush tropical landscape is home to many rare plants and animals. Among those is Dominica's national bird, the Imperial Amazon or Sisserou Parrot, which is also featured right in the center of their national flag. As of 2010, the Imperial Amazon was on the Red List of endangered species, with a population between merely 150 to 250 birds.
2. In Dominica there is the second largest in the world “Boiling lake”, and also many sulphur springs, freshwater lakes, waterfalls and rivers. The hot spring is approximately 200 feet (60 metres) across and is located barely six and a half miles from the capital city of Roseau. A flooded fumarole, the center of the lake is hot enough to be actively boiling, and even at the edges, temperatures are near the boiling point.
3. The first island sighted by Christopher Columbus on his second voyage to the New World was Dominica at which he arrived Sunday or Dominica in Latin, on 3 November 1493.
4. Dominica takes the first place among the best Islands to visit in the Caribbean and among the top of ten worldwide, according to rankings compiled by experts from the “National Geographic Traveler”. Dominica is among the five best places in the world for diving and among the ten places – for whale watching. Dominica has two marine reservations, four national parks, one of which was included in the UNESCO list of the World Heritage List as the only one of its kind in the Eastern Caribbean.
5. The capital of this wonderful country is Roseau; it had a population of 15,000 in 2014.
6. For many years, despite claiming the island as theirs, the French made no attempt to settle it. In fact, one of the only (recorded) Europeans who even visited Dominica was a French missionary by the name of Raymond Breton, and he didn't do so until the mid 17th century. In 1660 the English and French agreed to leave Dominica and St. Vincent unsettled, letting the Caribs continue to live unmolested and declaring the island neutral territory. The first European settlers to come to the island arrived as a result of 'La Gaoulé,' a revolt of poor white smallholders on Martinique. 12 years later, the French government took control of the island, officially folding it into the empire.
7. The second Pirates film, "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest" and the third film "At World's End" all had major scenes filmed in Dominica.

Cesare E Bruto, Alekama
Cesare E Bruto
Avrai trovato anche i miei sandali
Ma il tuo caff? ha un gusto inutile
Andiamo al parco a fare i vandali
Con questo cane alquanto docile mi va
Che questi giorni non si contano
Per stare in piedi allora sto seduto
Ho i pesci rossi che mi amano
Il pi? grosso ? Cesare l’altro Bruto
Tu sola sai di me se bevo il caff? perch?
Only you
Su per la collina e gi?
Tra i miei polmoni e poi respiro
Facciamo una pausa o torniamo in citt?
Io mi faccio un po’ pi? in l?
Pi? spazio alla tua felicit?
Il sole tramonta alle nove PM
Tu sola sai di me se bevo il caff? perch?
Only you
Guardare avanti mi ripeti tu
Dovrei staccare gli occhi dal cuscino
C’? un coccodrillo sulla polo blu
O forse nella vasca del vicino
