Nagaroo,

We found this same thing in our driveway early last week. Very dark, 3-4 inches, lots of seeds. While letting the dog out to do her business at night he saw what he believes was a fisher running from the bottom of our driveway to the woods across the street. We know we have fishers in the area, having caught one in a Have a Heart Trap a few years ago. It certainly wasn't a large wild mammal, nor was it a domestic. Too small for racoon, and too large for owl or bird.

I checked online and the scat descriptions for fishers fit what we found.

Hope this helps.
