Steve, it clearly isn't. Look at some pictures of beeflies and hoverflies, and concentrate on the eyes and mouthparts. Then look at some pictures of bees and wasps. The eyes and mouth-parts of flies vs bees/wasps are quite different, even for the imitator species. This one has typical eyes and mouthparts of a bee or wasp.
