Why is sun attracted to dark colors?

The sun is not "attracted" to dark colours. Dark colours simply absorb energy more efficiently than light colours. Light colours reflect the energy away, so they don't heat up the way that dark colours do. To say that dark colours "attract" the sun is simply an incorrect way of saying it.

Earthworms do not like the light, the sun in particular, disorients them. It also makes them extremely dry. That is why you will see worms on the sidewalk no where neat dirt or grass. They pop up to find food on the grass, the sun hits them, they become disoriented and they flop around usually hitting the pavement or cement. The sun dries them out and they die and shrivel up.

Do dark rocks absorb more heat than light rocks?

Dark rocks will absorb more radiant heat than light rocks, for the same reason that any dark object absorbs more heat than an equivalent light object. Light objects appear "light" to us because they reflect more light than objects which appear dark. Dark objects appear dark because they absorb more light and reflect less. However, dark objects will radiate more heat that light objects. Actually, dark rocks do NOT absorb more radiant heat than light rocks. Nor do they radiate more heat than light rocks. Dark rocks DO absorb more LIGHT than light rocks and they then radiate this light at heat. Light rocks reflect the light rather than absorb it and therefore do not radiate as much heat. If you put a light rock and a dark rock next to a HEAT source, the amount of heat absorbed will be related to the makeup of the material rather than to the color.
