A Pipistrellus bat

Original - A Pipistrellus bat recovering after landing on a pavement in daylight. (It has now been rehabilitated!) I took a couple of pics with a macro lens - very noisy - but couldn't reduce noise too much as pic went soft. This is an extremely rare shot.

Reason: Extremely rare to photograph this wild bat during the day

Oppose Several shortcomings, but mainly it's too small - please read the FPC requirements! --Janke | Talk 21:27, 21 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose - please read WP:WIAFP. This is too small, and not so rare or encyclopaedic that it overcomes the size issue. —Vanderdecken∴ ∫ξ φ 10:31, 22 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
