Do not disturb it. Keep pedestrians, children and pets away from the  swarm.

Honeybee swarms are easy to identify. First you may hear a hum as the bees fly in, as they do the sky is usually filled with bees and in some cases the sky may darken for a few moments, then they will land and cling to one another until all the whole colony has settled.
