Hello,
I photographed this fly near Ocre, locality Acquazzese (AQ), Italy, 1460m a.s.l. on April 6th 2025. I think it is a Tachinidae, but is it possible to identify its genus or species just based on this photo?
Thank you in advance,
Emanuele

Yes: Brachychaeta strigata, one of the most earliest birds in the season.
