A bird counter capable of separating, detecting, and counting birds. A counterrotating rotor mechanism having flexible fingers receives the birds into a space between the rotors substantially one at a time to separate the birds. The counterrotating rotor mechanism expels the birds from the space substantially one at a time. A fiber optic bird detecting system detects the number of expelled birds after the birds have been separated by the counterrotating rotors.
