I dunno, termites look a bit different to me, man. Even the winged ones look more like roaches than dragonflies.

The flying ants are alot smaller and "ant" looking from what I have seen in my own area, unless there are ones that look like this.

Edit: Nor have I seen a dragonfly like that, but some of the pictures look similiar as you go through the species they become more ant-like. I still cannot find a match though.
