Thank you very much for your last comments. There is one more small Muscidae? swarm today, but these specimen are not collected. Perhaps there is a chance to identify one or two specimen.
Thanks in advance.

The first one, I think is Phaonia fuscata, spring fly always siting on tree bark.

I agree with Nikita about the
Phaonia.
The third photo appears to be
Musca domestica.

Thank you very much Nikita & Tony,
#1 ist ok, #2 is embarrassing for me - I have done everything to avoid a photo of Musca domestica ;)
Greetings

You should have tried harder, Frank. It's really quite easy to avoid taking a photo of
Musca domestica. ;)
On the first three pages of a Google image search,
exactly 50% of the "Musca domestica" were other species (some not even muscids). :o
