It is larger than a housefly and smaller than a blowfly. It was more of a muted olive drab green than the photo seems to show.

Are these images of the same insect? Their wings look different. The first one resembles a flesh fly in the family Sarcophagidae.

Thanks for the ID. Yes, I took these moments apart. I used a phone camera, I can't expect good depth to the shots.
