I do think you are right about getting fat , but this 'little bart' could not fit into the vent after eating my moths
Ha! Probably getting fat from the moth light and having difficulties when taking off, right? ;-)
This as well as your other recent spotting are indeed vesper bats (fam. Vespertilionidae), and "pipisterelles". Most likely (based on distribution) they belong to Cape Serotines (Neoromicia capensis).
