Not that one picture is not enough - but here is one that shows how some of the piles line up --- these are right along a path that is well established that I see the deer use when cutting across my yard - we back up to swamp and marshland.

Here is a link that might be useful: {{gwi:1346482}}

Looks more like mole hills, in marshy soil.

I think it looks like wet soil too. If it's a scat I would not touch it without gloves and an N95 approved mask because it's not "normal" for any animal I know of. What I mean is that IF IT IS poop, it's likely poop from a sick animal and you need to take precautions not only looking at it but collecting it for specimen, allowing children around the area and indeed allowing pets around the area and when discarding of it. Having said that though, I still think it looks too earth-like to be poop (from the photo at least).
