-- Set up the flash outside and run a 1/8" cable from my camera hot shoe adapter to the flash
-- Sit on the couch waiting for birds to land and use your recommended settings then see how it turns out!

I'll take some practice shots tomorrow if it doesn't rain. Thanks again for all of the suggestions. I really hope there is better than a 1 in 1000 hit rate

Well Dave, Maybe a thousand is a bit of an exageration, but I do have a heavy finger, but who cares, the "film" is cheap.

PS, Sounds like a solid plan
