The species is common in the area and males like this are often found clustering together overnight.

The hind legs are more slender and less hairy than those of the female, see:

The definitive test is counting the number of antennal segments or getting a good look at the face. Only the male has a pale yellow patch on the lower edge of the head seen from the front.
