I removed some bees in Harahan, Louisiana about four years ago in an abandoned blue raised house.
The hive had thrown off a swarm in the neighbor's yard, they too were in a big wad right in the grass, but the neighbor and I hadn't met yet and he didn't know what to do so their outcome was not good.
I think about that one to this day, if only I could run across one like that again.
