(meteorobs) Was it a possible early Lyrid?

I am exploring the possibility of whether a recent April 17, 2011,
magnitude -11.2 fireball capture might be an early Lyrid. ??
I posted an all-sky map from www.heavens-above.com super-imposed on my
meteor image and the Lyra-Hercules radiant area is in the general
vicinity. Hence, I am wondering if this could be an early Lyrid? If
other early large Lyrid fireballs were observed ( like the one in Italy
) then this observation may be of possible significance.

Maybe it is just a sporadic?
