About 1cm long with wings? In a forest or other shaded, humid biotope, a garden perhaps? Conspicuously sitting on leaves near the ground? Am I right? :)
Yes, no garden but a shaded biotope.

This is Hydrophoria lancifer (Anthomyiide). It is by far the most numerous large fly in humid forests right now here in Scandinavia. I must have seen a thousand lancifers during the last few days.
Well, I only saw this one when I took the photo and it didn't look big. Perhaps because it is rather slender and long legged.
Thank you for the help Kahis and Nikita.
