Plenty of avian action in our coastal wetlands, July is our driest month
Cicadas are often mistaken for rattlesnakes
It's a great weekend to observe and identify winter migratory birds at the San Diego Bay National Wildlife Refuge.
Birdwatchers Need Not Despair just because the winter migrants are gone: plenty of shore birds can still be found on summer evenings in the natural coastal wetland areas of San Diego County. From south to north, the publicly accessible coastal wetlands include the Tijuana River Estuary, south San Diego Bay (just north of Imperial Beach and along the bay shore at Chula Vista), the San Diego River channel (inland from Sea World), Los Peñasquitos Lagoon (adjacent to Torrey Pines State Reserve), the San Dieguito River estuary, San Elijo Lagoon, Batiquitos Lagoon, Agua Hedionda Lagoon, and Buena Vista Lagoon. In and around these areas, look for California gulls, American avocets, brown pelicans, snowy egrets, killdeer, and redwing blackbirds.
July Is San Diego’s Driest Month, according to precipitation data compiled since the year 1850. On average, only four hundredths of an inch of rain fall this month, compared to almost two inches in January, our wettest month. July also marks the beginning of a new rainfall year, as defined by local meteorological convention.
Some 30 species of cicadas inhabit San Diego County.
Cicadas, The Insects That Sound Like Tinny Buzzsaws in the brush, have been putting up a racket around San Diego lately. Occasionally mistaken for the tail buzz of a rattlesnake, the sound is merely that of a male calling to potential mates. Some 30 species of cicadas inhabit San Diego County, but none are of the famous periodical type that emerge en masse every 13 or 17 years to serenade parts of the eastern United States.
