Day Island is an island at the mouth of the Petaluma River in San Pablo Bay (an embayment of San Francisco Bay).[3][4][5][6][7][8] It is part of Marin County, California.[9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16] Its coordinates are 38°06′13″N 122°29′26″W / 38.10361°N 122.49056°W / 38.10361; -122.49056 (Day Island)[1], and the United States Geological Survey measured its elevation as 105 ft (32 m) in 1981.[1] It appears on a 1951 USGS map of the area, although it appears on maps from as old as 1873.[2] The "1880 History of Marin County" by Alley, Bowen and Co. mentions "a man by name of Day" who "settled on an island in Novato township which has since borne his name" in 1851." To this day, there are still 2 houses on the island, one inhabited and one abandoned. The island is bordered by dirt and two lagoons to the west, and marshlands to the east, although it was once entirely surrounded by either marshland or water.[17]

Cutworm

Type of moth larva Cutworms redirects here. For the Brooklyn-based music project, see Cut Worms. The cutworm larva of the large yellow underwing (Noctua pronuba) Cutworms are moth larvae that hide under litter or soil during the day, coming out in the dark to feed on plants. A larva typically attacks the first part of the plant it encounters, namely the stem, often of a seedling, and consequently cuts it down; hence the name cutworm. Cutworms are not worms, biologically speaking, but caterpil...
