 hello flyforum,

Yesterday I saw a Sciomyzidae fly (I think it is Sciomyzidae..?) drinking orange with us.
It could be the hot wheater..?, the fly love's it very much!
After drinking juice, it makes a nice jump of joy Pfft

On the back of the fly some dark spots/stripe.
size about 1 cm.

Any idea? who this juice-drinker is?

greeting robert,
