Hello everyone
I photographed this Bombylius on 15.05.25 in a nature reserve in the northeast of France. Can you say more than Bomylius sp. with these pictures?

Best regards Siggi

Hello Siggi, Bombylius sp. is correct - to identify the species we'd need to see the hairs behind the eyes and at the wing base.
