I see this from time to time as well. Here's another example:

  Oct 17 23:02:44.000 [notice] Our IP Address has changed from 52.64.142.121 to [CORRECT IP]; rebuilding descriptor (source: 86.59.21.38).

52.64.142.121 appears to be an instance on Amazon's EC2. I don't run any nodes on EC2. 86.59.21.38 resolves to tor.noreply.org.

I'm unable to find any occurrences of this happening from Faravahar, however the issue seems to be fairly common. What's going on?

I just got something strange too:

Oct 22 20:42:24.000 [notice] Guessed our IP address as 77.206.60.235
(source: 154.35.175.225).
Oct 22 20:42:25.000 [notice] Our IP Address has changed from
77.206.60.235 to 149.18.2.82; rebuilding descriptor (source:
199.254.238.52).

faravahar guess my ip wrongly to be 77.206.60.235 which is a French IP
totally unrelated to my connection
