Can anyone help me ID this please? It was seen yesterday in Portsmouth. I believe it to be a Tachinidae.

This week I noticed lots of insects on the wing - spring time:).

Thanks Paul and jorgemotalmeida. On reflection, I should have gone for blow flies too.:|

It's surprising how rusty you become.
