It is a species of bee, it doesn't look quite right for honey bee, its abdomen appears the wrong shape but it could be the angle the picture was taken, will leave it to the insect experts to confirm for you.
Welcome to WAB by the way.

Evening La, and welcome to WAB!
It's a female Leaf-cutter Bee, and could be Megachile centuncularis ( but there are several quite similar/inseperable from photos).
Great shot by the way!
Take care, Jason  |

Take care, Jason | Thought so Jason, didn't want to suggest a leaf cutter in case i was wrong but you have confirmed it as being one.
