Default looks like a raccoon visit - picture

Woke up this morning to this

This is what the island normally looks like

The labradors shot out the door and went on a sniff
frenzy. To me, the damage and the sniff frenzy, looks
to be raccoon(s). The girls treed three of them this
winter and they never go on a sniff frenzy when the
heron visits.

I do not plan to take any defensive action. Just think it's
interesting to see the interaction of nature in the suburban
backyard.

I'll post the predator hints on another thread for those folks who can
use them. Jan and I did a bit of revising on them.
