Hello,

after I mistook a small Tachina ursina in another thread for T. lurida, I think this fly from a forest path today (northwest Germany) could not be mistaken. It was really big, much larger than a Tachina fera, about 16-18 mm. Did I really photograph my first Tachina ursina ever this afternoon?
