The worm has just popped up to the surface cos it is such a sunny day :) Taken today: Canon G6 1/160 F4 ISO 50 Polarising Filter

And every one said, 'If we only live,
We too will go to sea in a Sieve,---
To the hills of the Chankly Bore!'
Far and few, far and few, Are the lands where the Jumblies live;
Their heads are green, and their hands are blue, And they went to sea in a Sieve.

Huge worm. My thoughts are that this is what the worm "sees" most of the time. ;-]

Hey guys, you might find this interesting:

No eyes, no ears, but lots of heart!
"Worms do not have eyes or ears but are very sensitive to light. They generally avoid bright sunshine. Each worm has 5 hearts, so you gotta love them! Their bodies are sensitive to movement and vibrations. It is hard to sneak up on a worm. Worms usually know when people are near simply by the vibrations they make by walking."

Richard, your worm is the exception!!!! it says they "generally" avoid bright sunshine! well, let's just say that yours managed to get a nice pair of sunglasses so doesn't mind to get out and enjoy a bright sunny day!!!

Kort...would be interesting to know what they see. since they don't have eyes, do they just see a black nothingness or what! hmmmmmmm! i would love to be a worm for a few minutes to find out!!!! :)

here's the link where i got the worm info. neat stuff there!
