Another tiny fly (2.2 mm long to the rear of the wings). This was the only shot I got. Any ideas about family? A skinny Drosophild perhaps?

Open area near woodlands, West Virginia USA, 22 September 2006.

Anthomyzidae, check the images in the Gallery for that family.

Oh, that does look like a good match! Thank-you Paul for this ID and your comments on my other image of today.
