Photograph taken in July 2011, South East England, in-land rural/horticultural/agricultural environment.

I would appreciate an ID as far as possible (Family would be a great start!) and any advice as to what would have been needed to make a better id (wings, mesonotum, fly-in-hand etc)

Yeah - I'd need some more angles to go further :)

Thanks for the family! I'm afraid my photography isn't yet quick enough to always get multiple shots before the fly gets away :o(
