Hover fly?
Not a bee, they have legs fuzzies for collecting pollen, and are generally hairier than wasps. This may be a wasp or another insect mimicking a bee/wasp possibly?
I would guess hoverfly based on the eyes and face. In the UK we have these badass things called hornet mimic hoverflies, that look similar to this. I have beehives and these little buggers love to try and sneak in and steak honey. They are magnificent though.
This was taken in southern England so could well
beebe one!I’m that case I’d say almost certainly yes. I never knew they existed until a few years ago. First time I saw one I thought it was a massive hornet. So their disguise works
Sneaky bastards!
Looks like a hover fly. The fact your asking means that its evolutionary colouring has worked. They’re completely harmless, but they’ve evolved the colouring of bees / wasps to trick predictors.
I always thought hoverflies were way smaller
