I have a situation going on here that hasn't happened in the previous years.
I have a burrower. At the beginning of winter all the leafs fell evenly covering the lawns and flower gardens. Then the leafs started moving themselves until they were each tiny piles all over. Then I noticed the leaves were at an odd angle and there were sticks sticking straight up out of holes, the leaves also were marking where the holes were. So here's a couple of pictures. If I move the leafs there's a tunnel. Does anyone know what type of worm or bug comes up from the ground, does whatever then goes back down using a small twig or leafs to mark or close the entrance to his hole? I hope you can understand the pictures. It doesn't look so obvious in the pictures but the leafs are stuck in the hole. It's in my garden and the lawns...
I move those leafs and this is what's there...
This is why you should never allow your tortoises into their pens when wet...
This is the new chair given to me but Max has claimed it for her own...
Back to my holes, anybody have any ideas what kind of creature does this? The holes are bigger then nightcrawlers and I don't think worms can pull the leafs into the hole like these are...I sure would appreciate any help...
