On that habitat, I would suspect Piophilidae...

Hello kurt & Tony,
The species can even be identified: Pseudoseps signata! A very nice find. The apices of the radial veins where they end in the costa are slightly clouded. There are numerous acrosticals visible. Large yellow palps and antennae. The black apical ring on the hind femora. The middle leg entirely yellow. And the body colouration all point in this direction.
See here for an excellent photo:
