Hive of activity

I took the day off today since I was at an event all week, and I noticed that one of the bushes my landlords planted outside my back door has bloomed. I'm no plant expert, so I have no idea what species it is, but it does seem to be attracting the pollinating insects like nothing I've ever seen. So far, I've counted a bumblebee, several other honeybees (hopefully non-Africanized), two butterfly moths and this little beauty:

Apparently I'm not the only one that has noticed all this insect activity; a large wolf spider has moved in and has already snared one of the butterfly moths and a bee in its web. Circle of life, people - circle of life.
