Dear Nn2036
This is a March Fly in the family Bibionidae, and the large head and large eyes indicate it is a male. Inspect them more closely and you should find small headed females as well as mating pairs. Based on BugGuide images, we believe this March Fly is Bibio albipennis because of its clear wings.
