 Can anyone help me to identify this fly?
I took the picture of the first one on October 12 2007 in my garden in Putte, The Netherlands and the second one (I believe this to be the same species) today.
Thanks in advance,
Niek van Wijk

I will try to fix the messages this month. We have to make some other configuration changes before software goes out of support at end of year.
