Certainly in the UK these are more like hoverflys than bees. I just looked it up in my books and it could be a wasp, the trouble is there are so many variants. I have seen huge bumble bees (white tailed and buff tailed bumble bees) already, no wasps or hoverflys yet though! A good close up capture!
