unfortunately I have this one picture only of a dotted fly which I was unable to identify. Perhaps someone can help me out.
The fly was approx. 10-15mm in length, resting in the sun in my garden in Liechtenstein.

Are you a sheep farmer ?

Thank you very much, Theo!
No, I am not a sheep farmer, but actually there are sheep nearby.

Best regards, Burkhard
