While out in the forest today i came across a raised mound about 5' long, 3' wide, and about 18" high, with the soil on the top looking an orangey colour and formed into little balls about the size of rice crispies. If anything the top looked like it had been breaded. I assumed it was an ants nest (i'm a city boy and that was all i could think of) but looking at it i found 2 small holes. One about halfway up on it's side that let me see that it was obviously at least partially hollow inside. Another at the base with a small worn trail leading from it for about 8" where all the leaves and debris had been moved away. Both holes were about 1½" across. This made me think of snakes, but once again i am no expert. Any idea what this could be?
I can post up some (pretty poor) pics from my mobile later if anyone needs them.
