Re: Can anyone identify this bug?
I call them gnats, but that is probably a misnomer. I believe they cause no harm.

There are certain pursuits which, if not wholly poetic and true, do at least suggest a nobler and finer relation to nature than we know. The keeping of bees, for instance. ~ Henry David Thoreau

I can't see well enough to be sure, but likely from their behavior, they are phorid flies. They are harmless to your garden, and may be helping, because some species parasitize pest insects like fire ants.
