Found this female Tipulid floating apparently dead in a pool of water at the Burn of Valayre. Took a pic of it just because it looked like some weird face on its back..and thought...that would make a nice Avatar  Put it in a container to take it home and dry it off, see what it looked like. Opened the container to find it wandering about..still alive. Found a pic of a similar one which was very close to the pool where the first one was found...ID'able?
