Since the fence went up there are a lot fewer opportunities for spotting scat. For one thing, fewer critters are just wandering onto the upper property during the night. For another thing, we are not having to walk around the woods with a dog on leash 2-8 times/day. Also, I was gone so much this summer that leisurely walks in the woods just didn't happen for me. I thought maybe the "Whose Poop Is This, Anyway?" feature may have been unintentionally shelved, at least for awhile. THEN, I went just on the other side of the fence to take a photo of the orange square (you're welcome) and spotted this!
It's got the little swirly bit on the, uh, trailing ends that seem to indicate coyote. It was found in a spot of flattened down grass, which seems like a deer thing, but I don't know why deer would be so near the fence.
So, there you go.
I vote for coyote!
