Hi Judith,
They are most likely to be microbats. Many species from my experiences footage
around street lighting.
They are great little creatures :-)
Yours in all things "green"

Tonight about 10 there was only one floodlight still on at the playing
fields, in the carpark outside the box cafe near the tennis courts, so I
parked under it. There were bugs, sure enough, & shortly several creatures
about swallow-size began shooting through, tangentially to the
light-source. Though too fast to get the bins on, the creatures flew
through the light-glow with a very rapid fluttering motion. They were
ventrally pale, & silent. Tail shape/length were not visible. There were at
least 4 (max seen at any one time).
