I caught this swarm 7 days ago and was suprised they have drawn out half of the frames. *Is that my queen in the upper right 1/4 of the frame?

Hard to tell if you cannot zoom in. Look for the royal court, about 5-6 standing around her facing her.

Swarms do tend to draw out faster. I don't see the queen, but she might be there.

For reference, here's a picture I snapped of a queen and her court in one of my hives last week: http://img130.imageshack.us/g/dsc03711z.jpg/

Swarms are comb drawing machines....it is what they are primed to do.
