pgsql-general is the right place for that. Welcome.

Unfortunately the screen capture is missing the most significant part. But I guess that they are "LOG: connection received".

If this is correct, log_connection is set to on on your server, which makes server record every incoming connection like this. The frequent log lines mean that someone on the local host is frequently (trying) making connections to the server.

If they are unexpected incoming connections, one possibility is that something like health-check or keep alive thing is having a wrong interval setting.

regards.
