August Beetles is more accurate, last call for grunion season
Shore birds are beginning to arrive
The Ten-lined June Beetle will make a hissing sound when touched or disturbed.
June Bugs In August? June bugs are still emerging as the summer’s warmth is finally reaching the coastal regions of the county. In San Diego, the two most common species of these beetles, which belong in the scarab family, are the Figeater beetle (Cotinis mutabilis) and the Ten-lined beetle (Polyphylla decemlineata). Both are green in color, but the Ten-lined beetle has white lines running down its torso and feeds on foliage, while the Fig-eater beetle is all green with a metallic underbelly and feeds on pollen, nectar, and petals.
California Grunion (Leuresthes tenuis) spawn at the age of 1 year, and live for 2 to 4 years.
Grunion Will Be Active Again during the late night hours following the nocturnal high tide this week (8/19-8/22) for the final open season window of the year. The small, silvery grunion tend to spawn on wide, gently sloping beaches such as Silver Strand, Mission Beach, Pacific Beach, La Jolla Shores, and Del Mar. California law allows the taking of grunion in summer (except in those areas classified as ecological preserves). A California fishing license is required for persons 16 years and older, and south of Point Arguello, an Ocean Enhancement Validation is also required. Grunion may be taken by hand only. No holes may be dug in the beach to entrap them. Since June 2022, the daily bag and possession limit for grunion has been 30 fish. Additional grunion information can be obtained by visiting wildlife.ca.gov/fishing/ocean/grunion.
This Marbled Godwit looks for a meal along the shores of the Famosa Slough.
Shore Birds Migrating Southward are beginning to arrive in San Diego County. Through fall and winter various ducks, sandpipers, and plovers will be spotted in increased numbers in the county’s remaining coastal wetlands. Best bird-watching spots include the Tijuana River estuary, south San Diego Bay, the San Diego River flood channel, Peñasquitos Lagoon, San Elijo Lagoon, Batiquitos Lagoon, and Buena Vista Lagoon.
