14th Aug 2013 .. Worst Red Underwing shot ever

I recorded my "year first" Red Underwing last night and to dispel any doubts I photographed it.....

.... 5 metres high on the house wall, fluttering about.
Torch in one hand, Lumix in the other on full zoom, I grabbed the above quickly taken one-off shot before it took off again.
As it flew from the wall I followed it with the torch hoping the light would lure it down, which it did.. Narrowly avoiding the clutches of a hungry Bat it landed in my neighbours rose bush on the wrong side of the dividing wall and out of sight.
Crap pic, but good enough for another year tick and it doesn't have to sit in a pot in my cold fridge overnight for a mornings photo shoot.
