I am not so sure. I can't see the setae clearly (out of focus), and I can't recall an anthomyiid with greyish dusting and legs with this colouring.

Hello Michael,
here are additinal pictures of the same fly. Perhaps, there is enough additional information.
Best wishes, Josef

I now see it is Hylemya vagans! I had not realized that the scutal markings are so distinct. The female is much paler than the male.
