A real beauty :D Pity that so many livestock are fed insecticides because this group of flies would surely have been common >50 years ago. Reminds me of the 'Sheep Nostril Fly' (Oestrus ovis) that I caught a few years ago. At that time I couldn't find anyone locally who had seen them within the last 25 years, but I was lucky to visit a nature reserve just after they had removed a flock of 'organically reared' sheep ;)
