that looks like dog poop. What animal or bird would drop something like that?

There was an oak tree limb about 2' away from the roof. I assume it's from some kind of bird since it was under the eaves at each corner....Dutch gable roof.

Whatever it is would have to jump a few feet from the tree to the roof. No other way to get up there. The scat is under the eaves on all 4 corners where the gable meets the hips.

Not my house. My wife would like to have them around, though.

I'm going with 'coon. They are pretty adept at taking a dump in the same spot.

Some of that looks like opossum to me. Opossum poop reminds me more of cat mess than does 'coon. However, it could be raccoon as well.

Are you sure you don't have one setting up shop in your attic?

I have raccoons at my house. They can climb those porch supporting posts and get up on your roof pretty easily.

They can shimmy up my drain spouts easily.

Coons?! Coons get on our porch all the time, Momma just knocks'em off with a broom.

Definitely Mountain Lion. Have you checked nextdoor for sightings? You should probably alert the neighborhood.

This thread made me think how horrible it would be if birds dropled solid turds. Imagine a Canada goose dropping a chihuaha sized duece out of the sky.
