| You might think that earthworms wouldn't leave many tracks since they spend most of their time underground, but they do! |
 |
| These wonderful looping and curling trails are the tracks left behind by earthworms. They come out from underground during rainstorms and move about the surface. In mud, they leave these fantastic trails! Earthworms don't have feet, so there is no single track that they leave. Rather, you will find long, continuous trails like these. |

 |
| This lumpy bit of mud is an earthworm casting. These casts are made when the earthworms expel mud from their burrows. Look for these earthworm casts on top of the soil after a rainstorm. If you look closely, you may see hundreds of these! They are everywhere. |
