Lake Park, Becker County, Minnesota, USA
August 19, 2016
Size: "housefly" size
Came to porchlight at night. Based on photos in bugguide, this looks like Pollenia labialis, but I would appreciate confirmation, since the angle of the head is poor and the abdominal bars are throwing me.

Update: It's abdomen is stuck to the wall outside this morning. I think the inflated bars were due to fungus (?), and it had recently died before I took the picture.
