Hydroptilidae (microcaddisfly). Some species feed among filamentous green algae. Perhaps there is a pool nearby with a lot of algae in it.

My neighbours across the street have a tiny pond and I can often hear frogs in it. Maybe that's the source of them. I generally get a lot of caddisflies that come to light at night. I only photograph a fraction of them.
