Today (31 March), Amstelveen, the Netherlands. Birch tree-trunk at edge of playing field.

Superficially it looks like Lucilia, but eye color to dull, and M1 bends differently. So it must be something different, but what?

possibly different specimen (more coppery-colored thorax)

Well spotted. Not Lucilia, but something in Muscidae (Neomyia ?) Theo

It's a muscid - Eudasyphora, I think.

Thanks Nikita!

(What's in a name? cyani indicates blues but I saw green...other topic: autumnalis does not exactly indicate March!;))
