"Tiny Wasp" or Male Ant

Last Fall I found this dead insect on the sidewalk. It looks like a wasp but I had never seen one so small. I used the macro setting on my camera to take this photo. After doing more research, I am convinced this is actually a male ant. They have wings and live only long enough to mate.
