It's one of the long eared bats, there are two
long eared bat species locally but unfortunately the identifying features aren't visible in these photos.

Thank you so much. I'm interested to know - what are some of the other features you would need to see to be able to more accurately ID the bat? I learn so much from being on this platform, and am grateful for your time.
