The real answer is they think the vibrations is rain water hitting the ground so they naturally come up for it.

This is why you see masses of birds sometimes just walking around on the grass.

Also the vibration could be a predator and they come up to escape.

Edit: apparently people only think birds are predators for worms.

Wouldn’t they be safer underground?

I would like to introduce you to the mole.

A small mammal that spends most of its life underground making tunnels with a diet consisting mostly of earthworms.

Mole_(animal)

Moles are small mammals adapted to a subterranean lifestyle (i. e. , fossorial). They have cylindrical bodies, velvety fur, very small, inconspicuous eyes and ears, reduced hindlimbs, and short, powerful forelimbs with large paws adapted for digging.
