    Is there any way to record and count separately special types of sightings? E.g. dead birds, birds heard but not seen, caged birds, unconfirmed sightings (e.g. 50% probable), etc.  The only way I can see to do this is to create special regions for them, which means creating two trips sometimes.

    Otherwise this program looks excellent (although I've only been using it for 5 minutes). Thank you.

      For the record, Dick emailed me suggesting that rather than creating separate regions, I should create pseudo observers.  E.g. as well as my own observer code, PS, I could have PS-Dead, PS-Captive, etc.  Then dead and captive birds can be recorded in the same trip under those codes to allow separate counts to be calculated later.
