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.

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.

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.


It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.

Has the rustic scent of methyl mercaptan, mixed with just a hint of butyric acid, been rafting through your area?
