DING! DING! DING! You win the prize! I don't know how big it is on your screen, but it's about the size of a large dog poo. Homer poo size. Raccoon, but a big one, or one that had a HUGH... err... meal. ;~)

Example here :~)

I really thought it was bear poop. I associate berries in poop like that with bears. It stopped me in my tracks and that's why I picked it up. It looks exactly like the bear poop we've seen on trail, except not quite enough quantity. The only thing that kept me from believing we really had a bear was that there is no way a bear could have gotten in there without taking out the fence. It was ~inside~ the fence which is mesh field fence with four strands of wire above it. A bear could get in easy, but he'd leave the fence in ruins doing it.

I didn't really want to come back from Chili's with a tummy full of buffalo wings to read a discussion of raccoon poo.

However, I could mention that one of those I was at Chili's with would be inclined to poke the poo with a stick, and giggle.

I was thinking bear, too, but I couldn't see how it could have gotten through the fence!

Didn't even think of raccoon, but that makes sense. Still pretty big...

Just goes to show there are still *thousands* of topics still left to discuss in the Hobbit Hole...

It stopped me in my tracks and that's why I picked it up.

You *picked* *it* *up*?? Eww...

OK, now you're reminding me of an old Cheech & Chong skit.

Heh, size on the screen, it could have been but I thought I should go with my first thought. ob
