Default Average - without zero?

Hello,

I have a sheet that I require a monthly average for, however the
number of months in each column varies. Therefore I've been using the
formula: =AVERAGE(IF(ISNUMBER(B5:B17),B5:B17))

The problem is, this formula adds any zero's into the formula, and
that skews the average. Any ideas on how to change this? An example of
a table I'm using would be:

Jan 12
Feb 14
Mar 21
Apr 0
May 0
Jun 0
Jul 0

I want it to only average those cells that have a number other than 0.

Thanks for any help!
