Looked out the front door a few minutes ago, and--
http://snipurl.com/rhq7 --a swarm of bees has camped out across the
patio on one of the presumed dead trunks of the queen sago. If you go to
the picture, then click on "next picture" you should get an enlargement
of the proximate middle of the swarm. Very hard to photograph--the wings
of those on the outside are flapping exceeding fast to keep that mass
cool at the core.
Step one was to admire the swarm from as close as I could get
comfortably. Step two was to photograph them. I have no idea what step
three is.

Call the nearest beekeeper; s/he will likely be glad to take the whole lot
off your hands.
