I drove 75 minutes this afternoon to get a swarm that had probably 1000-1500 bees in it. 
One nice big fat queen though. I needed one, so it's all good. It's the first time I have ever seen any solid black honeybees. They aren't all solid black, probably less than 30% of them, but there are quite a few black ones in there. The queen is very dark also.
