This fly, almost exactly like fly #761390, was also in a group of 20-30 individuals five days later on the back porch railing in sunshine. This image shows the dorsal view of all these flies plus the wing venation.

Muscidae
Thanks so much for these ID's. Muscids are a group I'm not familiar with. It will be fun to learn about them.
