Found this fly today on my garbage barrell. Any help with ID is appreciated. Taken in Ct. USA. Possibly Tephritidae?? Some type of picture wing fly?

Garbage cans and cars under the sun are favourite places of these beasts...

Paul, I gave it a go. You should have all three shots. If not let me know and we can make some other arrangement for you to have them.
