There are 3 flies: first we can see a female Anthomyia liturata (the smaller one with dark legs), and another Anthomyiidae, maybe an Hylemya sp (not sure at all since the arista is not visible). Then the female A. liturata flies away, and a male of the same species replaces it.

Thank you very much.
