I'de rather prefer some better image quality...
But it moved all the short time and than vanished, leaving me with this only image.
Bibionidae female?

After a night it comes to my mind that it doesn't look like Bibionidae at all.
The only my idea is - if it exist Simulidae large like this, than may be some "Simulium "gigas""?

Mycetophildae!
It could well be the genus Cordyla, Epicypta or one closely related, but with the visible detaiils, I cannot tell.
