Default Flying ants or termites?

No, not large at all (without their wings), and they certainly are NOT
carpenter ants as I already have those!

I have what look like winged ants (black bodies with long wings) that have
been congregating on the inside of a window sill in my home. There are
numerous discarded wings along the floor too.

Any help is appreciated.

Are they large, Carpenter ants can do alot of damage, they dont spread
like termites but they ruin wood like termites.
