So it turns out that beekeepers here don't take wild swarms any more because
the Africanized killers are  here. I've tried to tell them that this swarm
is not hostile--I've been within 2 feet of it a couple of times--but it cuts
no ice. So I called "bee rescue" this morning and they will be out this
afternoon; $150.00!
