This fly has the little triangle on it's back, like the frit flies have. It just looks a little different.

Fooled again? :-)))
Hello Tom,
I'm just kidding! But this one is not a frit fly, but it's a Syrphid! It is a female from the genus Orthonevra, and there are a few pictures in the guide already, so you can compare them with yours.
Greetings,
Gerard Pennards
