No. 5 is a nice find. A cimbicid wasp showing hornet-mimicry. It could be a Cimbex sp.
In English such a wasp is called a "sawfly".

Thank you all

Betty, you're right! It's a Sawfly - Cimbex sp. (Cimbicidae)
Thanks for ID

Hi there DeVil,
Love these shots, great quality. Gives me inspiration, and the season here in Norway has just started

The Empid-shot is very nice!

And the hornet mimicry is very convincing in #5 – never seen one of those before, most interesting!
