Hi all, just wondering if anyone could tell me what sort of bug this thing
is ?

Garden Pest or should i leave them alone ?

Most ISPs have their newsservers set to not distribute binary
posts where they appear in these text groups, so most readers
will be unaware of any accompanying pic.

It would be informative to be told what niche the insects are
habitating, what they seem to be feeding on, and how many there
seem to be. Your photo shows them on dead timber, so maybe they
are termites that are normally unseen but which you uncovered?
(Just to show how one can be otherwise left to jump to wild
conclusions.)

I've never set eyes on such colourful bugs.
