I've found poo like this in my garden. I do get hedgehogs and thought they may have been eating the berries from my winter box. I get blackbirds too but it looks too big to have come from a blackbird! No ivy berries in my garden but plenty across the road on the farm.
It does look the shape & size of a hedgehog poop but the berries are the more concerning part - it would indicate to me a desperate hog with little food sources about. Would you consider making a feeding station for them? They'll reward you by eating the 'baddies' in your garden too!

Looks like a hedgehog poo to me. Not sure what he's been eating, but I'm pretty sure it's a hedgehog.

That's not a hedgehog, unless it's inside out!!
Hegdehogs are prickly.
Hosta!!!

Hoggie seems to have eaten something it can't digest so it's gone straight through!
Hedgehog + cotoneaster berries ?
No cotoneaster in the garden, but will now keep a look out for the hedgehogs, haven't seen one in the garden for a long time. thanks for replies
Hi satrdayboy
Do you have common ivy, in berry in your garden and do you have lots of blackbirds.
I have loads of these in my garden and for me they are the blackbirds eating the ivy berries and pooing wherever
I can tell what they've taken a fancy to lately from the colour of their poo...
That's what I think they may be, just a thought
