Three Calliphora females - the middle one is vicina, the commonest species. The other two are probably vicina, but I'm not 100% certain. ;)

Thank you very much Tony! #1 and #2 are the same specimen and I think in #3 I see a little bit orange too (have no frontal portrait). The next common Calliphoridae will follow ;) Best regards Frank
