It's doing a pretty good impression of a wasp, but I don't often see 
orange on wasps (they tend to have yellow markings, like yellow 
stripes). There are other insects not in the Order Hymenoptera that 
mimic wasps. I'm wondering if this is a wasp mimic with aposematic 
coloration, so we will leave it be (or bee).
