Earthworms are prey to birds because they are smaller, slower, and are not capable of attacking birds.
Also, many birds actually have two foveae in their eyes, while humans have one. The fovea is the part of the eye that is most sensitive and has the most photoreceptors. So with two focal points, such birds have very sharp vision and can see earthworms, among other prey.
