As a rule, Sarcophagidae is very seldom possible to ID from photos.

the better would be to see genitalia.. not the frons.

Sarcophagidae is hardest to ID by photo, almost impossible.

Jorge is correct - this is a female
Sarcophaga (s.l.) and I think it would be alomost impossible to identify even with a specimen. Males can be identified on their genitalia but they are usually impossible from photos.

The first is a female and the second is a male
So you're sure it's the same individual ??
