Moved

I have changed
the title and amended the photographer's original comment; without his permission. The original title was not appropriate.
Moved to sp. page based on John Young's ID; however I'm not 100% convinced of the ID. It is certainly in the sulcifrons/abdominalis complex.

Is this the same individual?
in which case we can link the images together. Or is this an image of a second fly seen at the same time crashing into your window?
