That would be cool, but I live on Town Lake and have a chain link

fence
yard, so I don't think it's armadillos (never seen on around here). The
holes are about the shape of a possum snout. It's probably raccoons

being
verrry quiet (I have a dog), although I'd think the holes would be

larger.

I'll post some pictures of armadillo holes ;-) The armadillos
have a much better chance of getting under a chain link fence than
do most possums. Armadillos usually work under cover of darkness,
too.


It's a possibility, but I would think I would have seen one. I don't
remember them being that stealthy while camping out in the hill country as
kids. The possums climb through the trellises and over the fence.
Now, I'm intrigued to find out who was doing the digging...
