Not sure this is the right thread to ask this but cannot find one for bats.

Are these Barbastelle bats? The size is about right. I think pics 1,2 and 3 are young.

Well, the resemblance is there - http://www.arkive.org/barbastelle-bat/barbastella-barbastellus/
But bear in mind: "Unfortunately it is not always possible to determine all bats by external characters. Even when considering all characters given in this key some species are difficult to distinguish and even more, some individuals differ so much from the usual appearance that they do not match the given descriptions."
