Very nice photos.
You don't have earthworms in the Bahamas? Or few at least, since you did find that one.
I have read that they are imported. I always thought they were just normal everywhere. They surely have spread, the wildest areas, will normally have worms. I wonder, if someone had gone fishing in the Bahamas, and had earthworms as bait, and one escaped, survived the fish, and the story goes on.
Keep us posted on how the garden does!

While most people view earth worms as good they aren't good everywhere. I couldn't find any information when doing a quick search for the Bahamas but I know earthworms are considered Invasive in Minnesota. They have caused a lot of damage up there. You may want to check with someone local and see if they are a native specie.
