Beekeepers respond to unusual honey bee colony living in sewer

It is peak swarm season, and beekeepers are fielding plenty of calls. One request in South Philadelphia stands out: a colony of honey bees living inside a sewer.

Neighbors on Lambert Street say the bees have taken up residence beneath a parking space, creating a buzz that has lasted for weeks. Thom Duffy captured video of the swarm gathering around a neighbor's car.

"It was literally looked like a thousand bees swarming her car," Duffy said.

The colony has been living in the sewer for the past three to four weeks, prompting neighbors to block off the parking spot to keep people away.
