Swept from dry grass. Size around 5 mm.
Please don't tell me it's a Pollenia, too ;).

Hmm. Depends on how far elong the spring is wher you live. Among the early- to mid-spring species
Phorbia females look like this; rather robust for anthomyiidae, all-black , mouth edge not elongated, wing slightly darkened.

This thread of mine possibly shows the same or a closely related species.

I examined the fly. I'm not sure, but I think -
Phorbia longipilis.
