Night time garden visitor.

Can anyone help, over the last few nights i have found a large number of droppings in my garden, mainly around my fish pond, but they are also all over the garden on my shed roof and also on the patio table, i do not think they are from Rats as im told they have black droppings, the droppings i have found are like pellets mid/light brown in colour and about 2cm. long. It is obviously feeding at night, but for some strange reason has not been on the bird table.

Marymg, what part of the country are you in ,do you have woods nearby?
do you have any idea what they are eating?

I live in Leyland Lancashire, there is small wooded area to the rear of the garden, then a brook, these creatures may be eating bird food or vegetation as a small plant has been roughly uprooted next to the pond. mary
