Sorry, I know this forum is intended for folks who keep bees so my question is probably not what you want to be asked here but I am so curious that I have have to at least try and find out....

Is it a bee in the attached photo that I took in my garden today?

After searching through pages and pages of google I am really confused as at first I was beginning to think it was a drone bee but more reading was making me doubt that it is because of the time of year and its behaviour.

Hope someone can help!
