Oh I see it now. We have house finches and purple finches and they're pretty tough to tell apart at a glance.
We have a lot of redpolls right now and I couldn't tell on your photo how much red they had on their head.
The ones on the deck rail here are redpolls without a doubt.

Thanks @JanS I never appreciated how much diversity in birds species and their range until I tried the Merlin app.
Probably raccoon, looks pretty close to coon tracks we have around the shop here
Coon is my guess, too. Looks like a human handprint almost with thumb?
Fyi, just for fun I copy pasted the entire photo into a query on Grok that called it canine...
Not even close! Although it may have gotten faked out on one of the others mixed in, which do look like dog- see the nails?
This is handy...

Here’s a couple of shots of tracks at the shop.
Tracks in the dust on a cover
And then coming down from the trash compactor.
During Covid we had 2 shifts running day and night to thin the population of people in the shop at any one time.
Night shift had doors open at night and one made its way inside in noticed.
Tore the hell out the upholstery department foam stacks. And a wall in the showroom, they tore into the drywall in the back corner by the windows trying to escape.
Don’t let your dogs near them they are mean as hell when cornered.

Yup! Have heard a big bull coon will kick a GSDs butt...and then there's what to do if you get bit separating them...(that would be me, duh!)

Yes, although I never expected to see one tooling up the driveway. A few years ago when our next door neighbor was starting their new house, their builder took this photo RIGHT in front of their property, right off our ranch road. He took some video too, although I can't post it here. The cat looked to be fairly young, had killed a deer and left it right on the road, and when the builder drove by, he saw the dead deer and then looked up and saw the lion, waiting for him to go away so he could finish his meal! And I had thought about walking down the road w/ the dog in that direction that day, even though I usually go up the road when I walk.
