Have a nice Day. One Question please. Can you tell from the photo whether it is a Sarcophagidae or one Tachinidae- species is.
I would be very grateful for an answer. Kind regards, Karl

Hello Karl, it's a Tachinidae-species - unfortunately I cannot see enough details to give it a name.

Hello Eric K and Theo thank you for the Answer. It doesn't matter if you can't really identify this fly. Maybe I'll find them again next year and be able to photograph them better.
Kind regards Karl.
