hello fly-forum,

I was just trying to make a picture of a moth when these uninvited flies came passing by..
And not just passing, they get mating in front of the camera!

At that time I did not got my flash ready of course..
so I have to do with some dark pictures..

I though it might be Rhamphomyia, but they don't have a bill like them..?

what are they?, I asked myself and put them on diptera.info..

Better wait for the experts, but I think these two are Anisopodidae (Sylvicola?).
Best regards,
Jürgen
