Mike, you can use the countif function. In the cell where you want your total
bird count, put:
=countif(F1:F600,*)
Where F1:F600 is the column range where you have some character, like x if
you saw the bird. All you have to do in the seen birds is put some non empty
string to get it
Dave's solution works well. Instead of X, I use the number 1. Then, at the
bottom of the column I insert the formula =sum(F1:F600) to cover the length
of the column.
I once used a bird listing program. It lasted about two days before it
crashed and I lost all my data. Excel files are much

You can also use =Count(range) and it will count any cell that has something in
it and it does not have to a number.

Back in the 90s I made this really detailed spreadsheet for a birding trip to
Belize, with nice colors and sub totals and daily counts. Somehow, going from
machine to machine, I lost it. Really
COUNT(Range) only counts numbers in excel. I just tried it to confirm.
