Flies? - Traginops irroratus
Colorado County, Texas, USA
May 2, 2010
I found these tiny flies feeding on sap bubbling out of a small tree in my back yard. The sap area wasn't even 3/4" long but it had numerous insects feeding on it.

It is the closest I could find but is far outside of what I have seen before.
