About the Damselfly
A damselfly nymph has a long, slender body with three, feathery tail-like gills which allow it to breath underwater. It moves through the water by sort of wriggling from side to side. The damselfly adult has a very long, slender abdomen and, when not flying, usually holds its long stiff wings together with tips touching over its back.
