Is there such a thing as a two (or 5) banded bee fly?

This is probably in the Horse/Deer Fly family. There are many species that look very similar to each other.

Yes, I am not that good with flies.
Too many mimics. Might be Tachinidae.

Thanks Ken. It is a bee fly.

With luck maybe we'll get the species, but there are around 270 different species of Villa.
I'll call this one Bob! :-)
