They're MALE mosquitos. It's the females with the bloodsuckers. Males are much larger than females, and have no blood sucker.

also, notice the antennae aren't even "mosquito-esque"

it would look like this instead:

I love chopping my pictures after I take them... cuz you can get stuff like THIS, which is so not possible otherwise...

| Criticism is welcome!
I agree the picture came out softer than I wanted. I don't like how the picture gets grainy with abundance of sharpness; like the turn rear left turn signal on the civic.
Meet you half way.
