Hey Joe, (I'm stifling a Jimi Hendrix moment here.) Could you give me a Readers Digest version of your settings, please? Is it safe to assume you have some aperture priority setting going on?
I few years ago I bought a re-furbed D5000 to save a few bucks and I'm thinking it was a serious mistake. I spend a lot of time in auto mode but it isn't providing the kinds of shots I want to post.

They will grab and run unless I feed them shelled peanuts.
