I was going to use the inspection camera to see what it up but there is no need. Up until this past weekend there was no sign of bees near the entrance other than the typical comings and goings of the foraging bees. While I don't know if this is a pre-swarm activity, it sure seems like it. Maybe I will have them swarm by the weekend, hopefully, as I am away for most of it and would hate to miss it.

Waiting for the swarm
This bee colony must have a huge space inside my wall as it is well into June and there has been no sign of swarming activity. I took a quick look tonight and see that the hive is chock full of bees, here is a video of the hole in the wall with the mass of bees just inside.
