This morning in a flower bed I found scat consisting of about 8 round pieces approximately 1" in diameter. There are seed in the scat. We live on a pond and nearby wooded area. (Chain O' Lakes State Park) There are beavers in the area

It is not beaver scat. Possibly deer or raccoon depending on shape...round pellets like a rabbit only larger (deer) versus cat-like feces (raccoon).
