Field Notes

Description:

Stretched out about a foot long - this one is not fully stretched, so he was about 8 inches long. Banded body, pinkish-brown in color.

Habitat:

Found on the sidewalk after a heavy April rain. There is one day each year when the worms come out in large numbers, like 50 covering the driveway.
