Photographed in the Netherlands, today. Bergen (N.H.)
Tachinidae. I think similar to Nilea hortulana. Am I right?
Best regards,
Thijs

Funny but I saw the brown tibiae this time but I didn't see the facial ridge bristles so I discounted
Pales :(

Remember the bluish key
1. Tachinid bluish --> 2
not bluish
2. scutellum completely dark. --> Epicampocera
scutullum reddish at tip --> Pales
