Soccer ball size.  Called in by passerby as bees are in the Island of a cross street situation in Berkeley.

Anyone with a pole and bucket who can go?

Do not claim this swarm if you cannot go in the next 20 minutes.  You need to be able to return at nightfall to collect them as well.

In this public area you should have caution tape and the notice of what is going on so the public do not disturb the bee box.
