This is awesome and kind of creepy also. Thank you.
They look like "sunsprites" or Dorymyrmex bureni
Were they rather tiny and was this in the US, in the south or south west? (I'm doing a wild guess based on their color and shape and... enthusiasm.)

Also, provided that it was rather warm were they kind of... spastic and moving so much they almost seemed blurry?

They are a lovely native species and rather famous for attacking young fire ant queens just to eat them when they fly.
They mostly scavenge but are not above hunting if the getting is good enough.
