Question about what to do with the added 1000 images of a new species is somewhat incorrect. Ir is at least up for debate.
I know the it’s about a made up place Peacetopia which could or could not be a place on Earth. Doesn’t say but since I’m from Earth I have to use my point of references 
If you look at the number of bird species (on Earth) 18.000 from lastest studies.
https://www.google.com/search?q=number+of+bird+species+in+the+world&oq=number+of+bird+s&aqs=chrome.2.69i57j0l3j0i22i30l6.3780j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8
Given the 10.000.000 dataset I came to the conclusion there was about
10.000.000 / 18.000 = ~ 555 images per species if the sampled uniformly.
So adding a 1000 new images would be enough to warrant it’s existence in the training data.
I think the question is written by someone biased (not having enough interest in birds :-)).
Just my thinking

This question made my day and I definitely cannot think of any good answer 
Anybody else of the moderators/mentors want to chime in with some input?

To discuss further, we need to know how many bird species may be found at the same place on Earth. A city like Peacetopia 
I guess that the monitoring system wont be a world market product but rather a one-off. Would be nice for the people of Peacetopia to be able to recoup some of the development costs by selling it worlwide. Maybe even make a profit and offer free healthcare and take proper care of the elders
