Last night I was on flashlight patrol and I saw a rather strange worm. It seemed to be coming out a hole. It has a flat head and I did not see a mouth or tentacles. If you were to lay it flat the bottom was white and the top was dark with white stripes. The worm was round and not flat. I could not see how long it was since it was coming out of the rock and was VERY light sensitive. I did not try my red light since I couldn't find it.
Today I saw what appears to be the same guy. It is in the same area just not coming out of the rocks. So here is a pic and a zoomed in crop of same pic. Sorry for blurryness but I had to flashlight it and use macro on my camera with a magniying glass. I am going to try to get some better pics but this was the best out of the 20+ I shot. Oh and it did not move from the flashlight in this position. But main lights are on right now.

Any ideas on what it may be? Not too good at describing so if you want more information let me know what parts to describe or get better shots of.
Thanks.
