Hello,
sorry for the bad picture quality. This 5 mm male was sunbathing at a tree trunk today at 3 °C at forest border (northwest Germany).
P.S.: For these low temperatures there were many flies on the wing today:
Phaonia tuguriorum,
Neomyia cornicina,
Calliphora vicina, several Anthomyiidae and/or Muscidae still to be identified plus the usual Trichocerids, Sciarids - and
Eraomyia lonchaeoides (Lonchaeidae, in numbers). Even a lizard (
Zootoca vivipara) was sunbathing on a tree trunk. :D
