Another one, that I had not seen before. This looks quite distinct from other common Tachinids.

The head in focus now.

Another individual, presumably the same species.

It's very difficult to see, but I'm convinced it's Demoticus plebejus.
The peculiar bend in vein M gives it away.
The projecting mouthedge and thickened arista are then visible, though out of focus.
