After posting the following message to the Allandale newsgroup, Mary sent along pictures of her new house guests.
" I just had massive, massive swarm of bees settle in my back yard. I would like to know if there has been any other people in the neighborhood that have had bee issues latley and if so, did they go away within a few days? I called one bee person and he indicated that they should move on in a day or so and if not, he can come and collect them for his hive.
Thanks for any info !

yes, this happened in our tx sycamore tree a couple of years ago and they moved on in about three days.
We live near NW Park and have had a substantial hive of bees in a live oak for several years. The hive’s entrance is so high that their fly-way is way above human activity. Nothing to compare to what your pictures show.
