Ok after comparing the pics I am almost certain they are the same type species of bug.
The hind legs appear to be Cricket / grasshopper like, the antenae are very similar and the First bug with wings is a slightly older version or the other.

Ok Ladies and gentlemen
Finally found out what these bugs are from some specialists on another website. Very cool.
Ok these are Halticus bractatus (Garden fleahopper)https://photography-on-the.net/forum/https://photography-on-the.net/forum/

thanks for suggesting, had some success there. However emphasis seems to be on spiders (obviously) and species to feed them - mainly Cockroaches. I get a much better response on diptera.info - emphasis on flies but general insects get good response too.
Bio Images nearly always seems to have a specimen to check with but is difficult to use as a first search.
