It's been kind of a slow day on the forum so....
Can anyone identify the animal that has been leaving this poo on our patio?
If you know the answer please just give a clue instead of the answer.
It sure eats a lot of bugs!
In Texas, it is the same size that ants leave behind.
If this sample was found in a green plastic dish, then I think we know what did it.

It seems phenomenal that the coins would emerge squeegee clean. This would indicate a final mechanical process through a very tight opening. This precludes the large man in the picture.
DIED: no and no
Brettski: no!
The sound of a burp is a dead give away. It’s definitely not from a California red kneed barking spider.

Some see the glass as half empty. Some see the glass as half full. Brettski photoshops the distorted reflection on the glass to straighten it out and sees that there's a 2 for 1 sale on hotdogs at the convenience store located behind the photographer.
Mmmmmm. Hotdogs.
In my neighborhood, that would have probably meant a coyote.
No to coyote.
jimsplace, you are correct sir, it is not from a spider.
we have two critters that leave blackish seed or bug ridden piles....one gobbles, the other wears a mask.
DIED, it is not from either a turkey or a raccoon. BTW is that your idea of hints?!
GW:
Has the rustic scent of methyl mercaptan, mixed with just a hint of butyric acid, been rafting through your area?
Ok, I'm man enough to admit it. Sorry GW I promise never to poo on your patio again, but when ya gotta go....
No to skunk Theo.
Just plain no to you JHAP!
Something that curls up into a ball when it feels threatened?
I wonder if this scientific poo identification chart will help us...?
obviously one of GW's trophy sized maggots escaped the bin and is on the loose.......
Toad poo.
I edited my post above to make it clear that BarO is the one man here that knows _______ from Shinola!
Wouldn't it be more accurate to call it "toad stool" ?!??
Who would have thought. I have never seen a Toad, Poo as you say. I usually step on them or they scurry away, By accident of course. I wonder what happened to that little guy that shoved himself into my office about three weeks ago and I never opened the door. Could smell, but I havent found that to be the case. Anyway, If Cecil wants to put in a new pond, Give me a call, I got the stuff!!!
Thankfully, my buddy Mr. Worte, is house broken. He lives on a lounge chair on our back deck. (I took this picture in early August. He has more than doubled in size since then -- maybe there is a connection.) Most days, he can be found on this chair, or the one next to it. We always sit down carefully.
Just had to pick a few dog hairs off the monitor, Now I can see clear!!! What a difference!!!
