What in the world could one little damselfly Hurt? I'd
name her and let her do her thing.

Clearly...I don't know which is why I asked. Just what is her "thing"?

buzzing around, snarfing up bugs, settling
down on a stem and chowing down on snarfed bug, buzzing around, finding a male
damselfly.... oops.
Hmmmm, BV, I think you need to go out, reach
way down into the freezing depths, sift through
the cold mud and find a male damselfly nymph and
bring him in! It's the least you can do.

I'd happily do so, if I knew where to look and what to look for. Another
interesting thing, my DF apparently commutes. She is gone all day, and the
comes back in the evening to chill by the water.

He/she looks like the critter on the left hand side of this page

This time of year you could take a scoop of mud, mulm, bottom scum of the
bottom of your pond or veggie filter and that is where you'll find them.

Ugh. *sniffle* She is gone. I added water to the tank the other day and I
fear I drown her, I haven't seen her in days.
