Today, while studying Biodiversity with a Gr 6 class from Sheppard PS, we came across an Earthworm making its way across the top of the snow! It was moving slowly, but it was very much alive. The temperature at the time was about 1C and there was not any bare ground to be found, as the bush is still covered in snow. I have seen frogs active in January before, but never Earthworms! It was quite the sighting and one that still confuses me… crazy weather!
