Hello

I think I found Tachina magna. Here are some pictures to help differentiate Tachina grossa.
Even in nature to the eye is difficult, an impression only. Size 16 mm.

It's possible but it does look a bit brightly-coloured for T.magna, which is normally almost black. But I have only ever seen 1 in a museum :)

To the eye it is black. With the camera red becomes very visible.
