I was in a rural area of North Texas. I had cleared some brush from my property and was burning the brush pile. I had been watching aircraft fly over E to W (commercial craft out of DFW Int'l). I was standing just S of the burning brush pile and was facing SW. There was a light breeze from the S, carrying any embers to the N. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw a single flash of bright, white light - fairly high in the western sky. I thought this was the anti-collision beacon on an aircraft, but there was only the single flash of white light..no red/green running lights. I watched the area of sky for a few minutes and then saw the flash again, this time twice in quick succession (about 1 sec for both flashes) and still no other colored lights. I kept watching but did not see any other flashes. The view to that portion of sky is unimpeded and the flashes happened well above the treeline from where I was standing.I'm well familiar with what aircraft look like as they fly over. I also know what a satellite looks like as it passes over. These flashes were unlike either of those. They appeared to be at a much greater altitude than the commercial air traffic and the flashes did not move...all three of the flashes I saw were in the same spot.
