Please un-link different individuals, thanks!
Andy, these two should be un-linked, since they are two different flies. However, you can post thumbnail links to each one, in the text, to keep them associated.
They both appear to be males. So you can check the boxes for gender. -- The eyes meet at the top of the head. = ♂

ID: Conophorus fenestratus
Figure this genus if you see a fuzzy face. (Well, on a fly, anyway.)

Thanks for the help
Now I see your many excellent examples on the OC Nat History site and I'm sure they're here as well.
