My intuition tells me this must be a Muscidae - but surely I can be terribly wrong! Am I? Is a genus name perhaps possible?

End April 2007, Amstelveen, the Netherlands. In shrubs bordering a playfield, so nothing special. Medium-small sized, say some 6 mm.

I'll show two photographs, one for wing venation.

It's Anthomyiidae, Anthomyia sp. (near procellaris).
