Worms!

I was turning my compost pile and noticed... worms!  Lots of worms.  Thousands of them!
I was a little amazed; I don't see this sort of worm population in the other soil.  Glad to see the little critters; for me, it's a sign of good, rich soil. 

Welcome, worms!

    Aren't those red wigglers?
    If so, you won't find them in soil

    Definely a good sign. I should probably remember to turn my compost pile sometime, lol.

    E, good catch. Those do look like red wrigglers, and they're certainly fond of the compost. There are thousands of them working hard.

    Thanks for the link
