Our five-frame observation hive tended to swarm.  We had a bi-directional bee counter on it, that counted every bee coming and going for any time period.  The queens were usually marked, but the wings were not clipped.  It was common for swarms to leave and return several times over a period of a few days before the final swarm left.
