Hi
I found for the first time an orange fly. It was so weird. The eyes are almost purple-orange (in photo the eyes would can be much better...)
Psilidae family? Not sure...
Taken today - very hot (more 30?C here) in Silgueiros - VISEU - PORTUGAL
to see it larger:

Possibly
Sapromyza of the Lauxaniidae.

Only strengthens my idea of
Sapromyza.

I agree with Paul (for once:p), this is
Sapromyza
