Thanks for the ID Cammie, it looks like a good match.

Great shots! It is so hard to get pictures of the quick little things, much less two of them in good lighting! Looks to me like two males, possibly the one is attempting to intimidate the other.

@Fyn.K: the antenna seem a little different, what do you think?
