    It's a potato (assuming you mean the lower one. :)
    A trowel in the hand is worth a thousand lost under a bush.

    If you pull it out gently, it will probably have a small potato attached, or a peeling. Presumably it has come out of compost unless you grew potatoes there last year.
    You don't stop doing new things because you get old, you get old because you stop doing new things. <3

    Oh how funny! Thank you! Must have come out of the compost then! 😂

    Oh right! I’m new to gardening so had no clue what it was! At least I know what to look out for now! 👍🏼😊
