In my carport.

Don’t see any feathers so I don’t think it was a bird.

And at least partially eaten there too. Couldn’t have been too long ago. There was some chunks that were still moist and it washed off easy.

That looks like rat blood. Have you got a cat?

You can tell rat blood from any another animal???

I don’t have an outdoor pet but the neighbor has a kitten. I doubt it was that. There’s birds of prey around here and they wouldn’t leave good prints. I don’t see anything that resembles a print. Could they attack something and not lose feathers?

Yeah 2b. I’m from Georgetown and my family is there but work remotely at Falcon Lake. I’m here most of the time though.

The hawks around here leave feathers all over.

Maybe you had a animal get in the boat stowaway or
up under the vehicle.

Possibly a couple male critters arguing . It as that time of year . We never see cats prowling until a female goes into heat and then we hear the males fighting .

There's a Youtube video on how to identify different types of animal blood. I'll post it later.

Something got ahold of a goose next to one of the ponds I fish. This pond is smack dab in the middle of a very affluent development. There was nothing much left of it but a pile of feathers.

Was washing my hands at the kitchen sink the other day and looked out the window. Something was amiss in the backyard. Went had a look at what it was. Guess a local hawk had a delicious meal.

I know what animal did that Texdawg. It was the jack azz that lived here before me. roflmao

No feathers, no fur, no hair, no prints.

No idea.

Familiar with ringtail cat? Lots of them in this area. Might check your attic.
