Is there any clue in this picture that would help to ID this fly?

This is an Anthomyiid or Muscid (possibly within Coenosiinae) female. I am inclined to say that this is a Muscid.

A slightly better picture on the wing might help resolve this issue. Do you have a lateral view?

This fly is the typical Anthomyiid/Muscid with no eyestriking characteristics, so I do not think too many people would hazard to risk to name it to genus level.

What about Fanniidae? See subcosta.
