Hello,
A Tachinidae found in North of France, at Oxelaere, the 25 September 2021, on Hydrangea sp. leaves in the sun, in a small park
Maybe a male
Thelaira solivaga ?

Hello Renko, I'm sure, you are right (yellow calyptrae, abdomen laterally red, hairs on tergite 3, 4 fine and short...).

Thanks you so much, Theo !! :)
There was two specimens, the big one was always chasing the small one and trying to mate with it (but I think it was an another male)
