I mean I got a little bit lost in where I was heading, but I actually want to answer the original question: maybe there is this problem for the extremely dedicated birder who spends months looking up the locations (or pays a tour company exorbitant money to do so for them), but for everyone else, the situation is completely opposite. Information about where to see birds is getting somewhat available to "normal people" (well, and, also, like, myself). I really don't know, maybe the amount of species available to the most dedicated world lister is indeed declining, but the overall number of man-species (as in "man-hour", you get the idea) is definitely on the rise.
Still waiting for an invite to the cabal though.
