Very easy as it visits someones back yard and you just give them a few CUC's. They are lovely people too!You can arrange a local guide if you wish, will certainly help with species like Pygmy Owl others like Blue-headed quail Dove are much easier. The Casa Particular that we stayed in is brilliant but very popular and you need to book in advance (I presume you are not staying in a hotel?) Casa's are the way to go. All the ones we went to were excellent. Let me know if you want details.</blockquote>
