Cerastipsocus venosus
You are right Sean. Theses are nymph Cerastipsocus venosus; Family Psocidae. They are one of the more conspicuous species in the East. I often see nymphs and adults clustered together in large groups on smooth tree trunks. The nymphs can be quickly IDed thanks to the yellow and brown striped abdomens.
