Hi Paul,
Thanks a lot for pointing in the right direction. I will find time to download and test it out. Hope to salvage some shots.

Beeeater season has started, so here's a few from last weekend.
1st
D90, ISO400, F/8.5, 1/800, right after sunrise.
2nd and 4th
D90, ISO400 F/8.5 1/640, about half an hour after sunrise.
3rd and 5th
D90, ISO400 F/8.5 1/2000
An attempt at some long distance and BIF shots. Not too bad really considering my talent level, and just a monopod, which was more difficult to keep steady at these distances than i imagined.
