Famed for Its Diving, Bonaire Is a Paradise for Birders, Too
"Covering 14,000 acres of two former plantations in the island's northwest, the park is ringed by cliffs and beaches with a desertlike interior. We passed donkeys, progeny of animals left by the Spaniards who cleared the hardwoods in the 15th century. The place felt foreboding—yet birds were everywhere."
