A very characteristic Tachinid from the Bulgarian seesde, which I do not remember to have ever seen.

Another individual from a different date and location, I assume they belong to the same species.

Wow - great photos - you can even see the swollen prosternum that acts as a sound location device (for finding singing nocturnal Orthoptera)
