Bonaire and Aruba

Both desert like islands with cactus and xerophytic  scrub holding exotic species.
On Aruba the cacti was in abundance as we toured the island,looking for some
specialites.
Bubali nature reserve holds a variety of species and is not far from the port.
The brown throated parakeet is of the genus Aratinga and showed well from the
Tower hide.Some duck were present on this visit of note Blue winged teal and
Bahama Pintail.
Finally before leaving I saw and photographed a Yellow billed Cuckoo another
lifer American migrant.
