Noticed this pile of droppings here in the camp... I'm not all that familiar with my critters but would think that deer droppings are more like pellets rather than large globs like this.
Quarter placed next to it for size and scale.
We have had some bear sightings in the area - think this could be bear?

My guess would be racoon or skunk.

Update: I showed pictures to park manager who is a hunter. She said others have reported finding the same thing in their camps as well. And there have been bear sightings as close as across the marina along the tree line to the woods.
She said it was very likely bear.
Looks like I just got my excuse to go buy a Glock 10mm.....

I don't mess around, and since a Glock in 10mm has been on my 'maybe someday' list, I decided to get one since now I have an actual need.
While at the gun store I showed the pics to a guy who said he was an ex trapper and very experienced hunter... He looked at them for about one second and said "Bear".
I brought it home, gave it a once over cleaning in case Glock had a bad day when they made this one, loaded it up, holstered, and now it's standing guard by the front door.
One thing I just love about Glocks is holsters and doodads are interchangeable based on the two frame sizes, so stuff I had around for my G21 in .45ACP fits the G20 just fine. Turns out I didn't even need to buy a new holster.... oh well....

That scat looks democrat to me, re-enforced by the fact they left it on somebody else's lawn instead of their own......Joe

Definitely bear poo. A smaller one, but a bear nonetheless.

There's a deposit like that at the edge of my farm. I was really hoping it was racoon.
