Night time visitors

You come out in the morning and do some poking around the garden. Looking more closely at things, you notice these small little holes in your soil. Many gardeners know what this is but for the new gardener, this is very good news. You have earthworms visiting you at night. They are helping to turn your soil, aerate, and fertilize. They are very good visitors to have. Occasionally you might visit your garden with a flashlight and notice something move very quickly out of the corner of your eye. You look, and it’s gone. But you’ll see the hole they went into, and you’ll then realize what it was. Fun stuff going on all the time.
