A friend and I are debating whether earth worms are native to WI or not. I
seem to remember reading something about ovenbirds and other birds that nest
in leaf litter losing the litter due to the introduction of earth worms,
especially in northern WI. Can someone please send me some info on this?
 

Thanks,
