I know nothing about bees, but that looks enormous to me.
I'm just a soul whose intentions are good. O Lord please don't let me be misunderstood.

Is there a way to tell if the swarm is Africanized before you take it home?

No, but if you're anywhere north of central florida, south texas the desert southwest (lower elevations) and southern california its not a worry. Apis mellifera scutellata aka savannah bee aka african bee and it's africanized progeny is a tropical subspecies incapable of suriving even the mildest temperate winter.
