The problem with ABA these days is that there are very few birders on
staff. In fact, I can think of only three: Rick Wright (editor of
Winging It), Darlene Smyth (conference/convention coordinator) and Ted
Floyd (editor of Birding). It's certainly not like the old days when ABA
was a bunch of hard core listers. It's a business now. It may ultimately
be the demise of ABA or it could bring in lots of new people who aren't
as driven.
