These are lovely little bees, very common, and not known to be very aggressive. The females may sting, but it's very mild. They are said to be particularly attracted to the color purple. :)

You have a delightfully pretty little sweat bee. I'll try to nail the species for you, or at least get a little closer to an ID for you....
