I tried to get ID for this fly on Back Garden Moths site but didnt get anywhere. Linda Buckell was the one worumho pointed me in the direction of this forum, so hopefully I will get a definitive answer.

Thanks very much for the fast response Jorge. I have had a look in google image under Tachinid and hey presto, there it was.

Well, I agree - unless it is a Nowickia ... hard to say - do you have a bigger photo?

I have checked images I found on the net for nowickia (ferox) and I must say it does look almost identical. Unfortunately i didnt get any other pics of it.
