I would go for a bee, because of the hairy legs and body. probably a native, hopefully a expert will help.

great colors and clarity EM, maybe a cross between the two, just don't make it cross.

Yes I'm leaning towards a Native Bee myself.

The Native Bees here don't sting Bob, only the Honey Bees do.

Its not a hornet. Hornets are in the genus Vespula and same family as the paper waps. It could be one of the Australian stingless bees or one of the sweat bees or closely related.
