Hi,
I frequently found these flies at the edge of a village pond in Burgenland (Austria).
Especially the broad head with the bulging eyes I find conspicuous.
Is the water's edge their habitat?
Cheers
Lorin

I think these are
Lispe
females, possibly
tentaculata
. There is a revision of this group available here:
