Found these flies in large numbers close to the sea (mostly sitting on rocks). Scathophagidae maybe? Seems to be a predatory species. Photos from 25.06.2011, Bodø, northern Norway. Size is less than 10 mm (maybe 7-8 mm).

Yes, saw it in the gallery, but was not sure (unknown species to me). Thanks for identification.
