The Guardian counted 50000 only. Any higher bids?

What about 65000?

Before it was over, Collings removed 55,000 - 65,000 bees from the wall of the home. Collins said it would have taken the bees about eight months to build the hive, according to The Guardian.

Funny, they quote the guardian, which only states "50000 bees or more".
