Recent Rains Have Left Lots Of Standing Water Behind, and it is in these pools that the “ankle biter” mosquito spawns. The first Aedes Aegypti mosquito was seen in San Diego in 2014; they are known for living low-flying, indoor lives, and can bite multiple times in one landing. They can be recognized by the black and white markings on their legs. These little buggers will be with us until cooler weather sets in so dump out any standing water in your vicinity.
Fall Migrant Birds Such As Wood Warblers can be seen at Cabrillo National Monument and its vicinity on Point Loma, Torrey Pines State Reserve, and other parks and open spaces near the San Diego coast. Cooper’s or marsh hawks and even peregrine falcons may be seen following or pursuing these smaller birds.
The Full Moon Happens This Month On Friday, September 29 at 2:58 am. The full moon that happens nearest to the fall equinox is called a “Harvest Moon.” Unlike other full moons, this full moon rises at nearly the same time for several evenings in a row, giving farmers a few extra evenings of moonlight in which to finish their harvests before the cold weather arrived. If October’s full moon occurs closer to the equinox than September’s, it gets the “Harvest Moon” title instead. In these instances, September’s full moon is referred to as the “Corn Moon.”
