Welcome. The pictures are somewhat little, but it seems to be an Eumerus sp. (Syrphidae).

Wow, thanks, Hoverfly didn't even cross my mind! (I'm a real beginner at this).
Sorry about the small pics, I compressed them thinking that would be better for posting...

Another thread HERE that I have found since you gave me 'Eumerus' suggested one of the following:
Eumerus funeralis (= tuberculatus)/strigatus/sogdianus

Does one of those seem right?
