morning - weird flies

find these outside the gate this morning while shooting the droplets of the bamboo leafs.

these insects are hanging in the air, grouping together as if there's some form of swarming, like seasonal thingie for the ants, which normally are wingless, but when the season comes, the females will grow wings and fly out in swarms from the colony to establish their own colonies
( http://www.coopext.colostate.edu/4dmg/Pests/flyant.htm ).

they form a chain in the air. they move about from one place to the next, always shifting position.

very, very long legs, every, very thin and long body..... looks like with only a pair of long wings...

but what insect are these?

something like water measurer
