Photos taken near Reading, UK, on 2012-09-09.

I think this might be Melanomya nana (Calliphoridae). Is this correct?

[Edit: As pointed out below by 'oxycera', this is more likely to be a Morellia sp (Muscidae).]

Morellia, perhaps?

Of couse! The white stripe behind the head is much more Morellia.
Thank you!
