It's been drizzling pretty much all day today. Earlier, when I was out walking in the rain as I'm wont to do, I came across a worm on the sidewalk. A small one this time, not one of those scary giant ones. It was evidently quite weak, very slowly crawling along on the polished stone tile. I picked it up gingerly, and it didn't offer much resistance, obviously on its last "legs". I carried it to the verge, dug a shallow hole with my finger and put it in. By then the worm had stopped moving altogether. I watched it for a little while, then resumed my rain walk. I don't know if it managed to recover.
Number of worms rescued: 79
