I photographed these two flies in early morning in early May. The place was the Sonoran Desert of southern Arizona, USA. I didn't get a measurement.

The photo had some technical problems so I have delayed posting it. Finally today I worked on it some and here it is.

Are they Syrphids?

As always, thanks for the ID help with these!
