I thougt it was a bee when I took the pictures with these antennas.
When looking at picures later eyes looks like a fly like a Tabanidae.

Can anyone help?

Reminds me somewhat of Heptatoma pellucens, but I am not familiar with the male of that species, let alone of the Scandinavian Tabanidae.

Unmistakable species. H. pellucens is OK. Libor
