Hello,

I have been watching in vain for Kirbya moerens or Campylochaeta praecox this year. This is only the third Tachinid species I found in 2017 (after Gymnocheta viridis und Phasia hemiptera early this month). Can it be identified despite the blurry picture (the only one)? About 8 mm, on low vegetation near a small creek (northwest Germany).
