Cylindromyia bicolor (Tachinidae), I think.

The red & black one is certainly a Cylindromyia sp. but I couldn't say more - the abdomen looks too dark for bicolor. I don't see enough of the other fly but it is possibly a Meigenia sp., but that's just a guess.

Plaese include the images in the post. It is such a hassle to open new windows to do the identifications. Wink
