Second, she flies to an area of water and deposits (存放),40 her eggs in the water. In a few days the eggs open, and the baby mosquitoes, called larvae, come out.

Deer leave the high ground and come down from the mountains before a storm.If you see this, you can be sure that there will be a storm within two days.When you see large numbers of sea crabs on a sandy beach, it is time to leave.A change in air pressure over the water warns the crabs that a storm is coming.To escape the stormy sea pounding the shore, they leave the water and seek shelter on land.
Birds are especially good weather indicators because they also show the effect of a pressure drop in many ways.For example, some birds become easily annoyed and will fight over a piece of bread.Other birds sing just before a storm.It seems they know they won't get another chance for an hour or two.Birds also seek shelter before a storm.You will sometimes see birds resting in trees or staying closely together on a wire near a building.This is a good storm signal.
