Chimney Rock Park, Winneshiek County, Iowa, USA

Size: 7 mm
Possibly a tachinid fly, but I may even be wrong about that. I don't know if there are any good ID clues to see in my photos or not.

Tachinid fly
Thanks so much for taking a look at this fly, Jeff! It reminded me of a Tachinid fly, so it's great to get my hunch confirmed!
