Thanks Dave, much appreciated.......
I've been experimenting with multiple flash on the bird shots and still have a long way to go before figuring it out.....
If I remember correctly, you're quite the photography enthusiast and quite good at it I might add..........this multi-flash technique has me intrigued and determined to figured it out before quitting ........

Boy it's working well Jim. Brilliant shots.

My wife bought me a Canon EOS 450 for Christmas. Great results but I need a longer lens to match you and I'd still be way behind.
