Hello everybody,

I took the following two pictures showing the same fly couple at 8th September 2005 in Zwickau, Germany at a glade near a pond.

I'd like to upload them to the Wikipedia projects, but I do not know which species it is. All people I already asked told me that it is complicated to find out. All I know is that it could be the family Anthomyiidae or Muscidae. I've been referred to this forum, because here "are the real experts". So, you are my last hope. I would be very happy if you can help.
