Looks like Tachina lurida (but wait for the experts).

Regrettably I have only this single photo. T. lurida has apparently never been recorded in Denmark, so it would be great if a credible ID is actually possible. |

Hi Karsten, this is probably a female T. ursina: https://diptera.info/forum/viewthread.php?forum_id=5&thread_id=99921 Greetings, Eric |

I see, thanks. I suspected that the size difference to another large individual of 11 mms at the same spot could not tell much. They really vary, those tachinids. Difference of luck for the larvae, I suppose... :-) |
