I’ll take the hive if it’s still for grabs.

I was driving up Broadway, at 14th St when I noticed some bees floating near my window,  Pulled over and saw a small swarm forming in tree near a bus stop.   Went home got a box, transferred a clump w queen.  I returned after an hour since I was concerned about someone messing w things.  I have this small colony at home.  

I already have 4 hives, which is one more then optimal, so I don't want this one.   I'm in N Oakland, if anyone can collect tonight or tmmrw they are yours..
