Hard to tell from photo but looks more like a Long eared bat than a horseshoe bat. Can't quite see the nose ridge that helps ID to species. If you have clearer pictures of the face could try ID to species.

Glad you'd had your fill and there was enough for the flying foxes Lisa :)

Yes, and the grey on the face is ash, not the actual colour of the fur.

Sad way to get great photos! Microbats are so exciting to see (IMO)

30 is in between vulturnus or regulus, could be either. Given it looks dessicated it's probably shrunk a little I'd say more likely regulus.
