Large lone bat over the main lake at 2000 on 070407. Def not a pip or BLE. Probable Daubentons but am favouring Noctule due to size. Anyone know what bats occur at Swanholme?

It was consistently wll above the water probably 20 or 30 feet or more which made me think more of Noctule than Daub.

I have seen Noctules in Swanholme in recent years.
They also occur along the catchwater drain in front of my house.
