Also the location data in the image was incorrect, sometimes my phone does that when I'm on wifi ... I have updated the location manually to Mongarlowe.
You can see the tip of the tail better in this photo:

I have some shonky video I can send you.
Rat trap dimensions : 132x160x340
The tip of the tail was a dark colour, like the colour of a brush tail.
This glider seemed to have less stripes, only a small black mark on it's head, than other gliders I've seen. And cuter with bigger eyes. The underside of the belly was a cream/ white colour.

The glider seems to have taken up residence in the roof of the shed so I may be able to set up a camera and get better footage once I resolve my solar power issues...
