What do you think

If the poo is small dog sized I’d say a fox.

Hedgies are very unlikely although they will sometimes scavenge abandon carrion if there’s not something better. They are not bird catchers.

I'd guess it was a cat. Hedgehogs are usually out at night, so it wouldn't be that.

Hedgehogs eat worms, they do prey on birds. The most likely suspect , after ruling out a cat would be a bird of prey. Perhaps a sparrow hawk, kestrel or owl could be to blame.

Do not prey on birds. (Fat fingers on small keyboard).

Was the poo, owl pellet type?

Owl pellets are not poo, they are vomit.

I’d go with the sparrow hawk too. Most likely explanation.

I watched a sparrow hawk polish off a pigeon in our garden, there was virtually nothing left at the end, just a few feathers. If it was half eaten, the hawk may have been disturbed.

My first thought was a fox but may well have been a bird of prey.

Rats?

If the poo was black it is likely to be from a fox.

Depends on the poo size! Hedgehogs have black poo, but small amounts.
Either a cat or a bird of prey I think, we find this regularly in the garden and red kites circle about most days.

Sounds like a sparrow hawk

We were amazed to see a kestrel in our garden pulling a pigeon apart - it left only feathers and the head.

I have seen a kestrel in my garden grab a pigeon and carry it off, also saw one with a half eaten one,it dropped it in my garden, poor thing was just still alive

I watched a thrush breaking open a snail on a rock and down came a kestrel and grabbed it. After it had finished there was just a beak, claws and feathers on the lawn. I was still a teacher and used it as an example of a food chain!

We have had 2 visits from a bird of prey in our garden. The first, I videoed as my husband rushed out to disturb it as it attacked a thrush, the second resulted in a heap of blackbird feathers and not much else. I know they have to eat, but when I see it hovering near our house as I drive home, I hope it’s not been in our garden.

Badger(s)? They certainly leave poo everywhere. If the bird was injured it'd be easy for a badger to get at it.

Sounds like a bird of prey to me.

Sparrowhawk?

Another vote for sparrowhawk. They circle very high and then bomb down. They sit in the hedge and tear the pigeons apart here. Then the magpies fight and chase off the black birds and the jackdaws ditto the magpies while the fox goes for the rabbits and the squirrels challenge everything. It can be bedlam on a quiet afternoon and I don't even live in the country.

Maybe a Sparrowhawk? I once came across a sparrowhawk lugging the corpse of a wood pigeon across a pavement and vanishing under a garden hedge with it.

They're vicious buggers.

I too have seen these half eaten birds. A fox is usually the culprit as it is not always chickens and rabbits they go for but observed one with a wood pigeon in its mouth .Nests are full of young birds and some will fall out of these nests so you may be sure the fox is always at the ready.

Could have been a Fox. They kill our neighbours chickens and leave only the feathers. OR a bird of prey. We have Buzzards nesting in the field behind us and they often prey on the pigeons and doves.
