Damselfy Larva

Damselfly Larva
Damselflies hatch from eggs deposited in the vernal pool.  They live there, under water, for one to three years.

Damselfly Larva
Being insects they have three sets of legs.  It appeared to me they for moving these in rhythm, perhaps for locomotion.  They did move their tails as fish do, also.  Maybe this one is switching from swimming to walking in preparation for leaving the vernal pool.
