What could that be? Cat? Fox? They are right on my windowsill outside, ground floor but not very low and today around midnight while taking rubbish out I noticed earth all over 2 of the window boxes - it had been dug out of them. Put it back in, looked out of the window now so 2.5 hours later and exactly the same.
Really puzzled as was sitting in the room all that time with cats right by the window and have not heard anything digging there.
Has this happened to anyone else?
What could it be?

Could be squirrels unearthing their winter food supplies.
That is so weird Anka - I too have noticed this happen several times in my front window boxes and have been similarly puzzled! I have no idea tbh - the paranoid side of me almost wondered at one point whether it was someone looking for a front door key?! If people would be crazy enough to leave a spare in their window box? Very bizarre...
Yes, we have a fox in the garden also. I sowed about a hundred bulbs in the autumn then covered the ground with chicken wire; it doesn't look so pretty at the moment, but it has done the trick.
Could be, you get birds singing all night in London. Quien sabe?!
Squirrels very active in my garden this week, I think it must be the very cold weather making them desperate to get enough food. Actually, I could go and dig up the bluebell bulbs for them, they get far too invasive later on in the year!
Small rolls of various types of mesh cheap in Wilkinsons a couple of years ago (fairly sure it was there, but poss Homebase or B&Q)
