These two have been hanging around for days. Wondering what they are. They look ancient. They are very small. Smaller than my little fingernail.

Mating Broad-Nosed Weevils
Hi Christy,
These are mating Broad Nosed Weevils, most probably in the genus Ophryastes which are found in desert climates in the American Southwest. We located images of this genus on BugGuide.
