Hi
Just to confirm... Is this Tachina fera? Taken in 1 April 2007.

I'd say almost certainly not
Tachina fera - the tarsi are dark and the frons is very wide. But I can't think what it might be because there are lots of possibilities in the south :)

Chris is right and first impression is a female magnicornis, partly for the reasons given by Chris.
I don't have any objections to magnicornis
