Horsehair Worms Gallery

On the morning of January 3, 2006, the employees of Buchanan County Public Library found about about 20 Horsehair Worms in the parking lot. The worms averaged about two feet in length and seemed to be fairly mobile, raising up about four inches off the pavement and swaying side to side.
