Could this be my mystery invader?

HTP drove to the big city again today. He offered to take me with him but I decided to stay home this time. I didn't feel like spending the six hours of travel time, stuck in a car. Besides, we'll be going to the big city on Sunday. I did pack up most of the pizzelle that I made yesterday so HTP could bring them to his Mom and Dad.

I'm going to give the bean seed that I planted/replanted in my garden a few more days to sprout. It hasn't been quite a week since I re-seeded my beans. Unfortunately, something is still digging around in my garden. I don't think it actually means to dig up my seeds because it's leaving them lying on the surface of the garden...uneaten, and I found an acorn stuck into one of the holes. I took care of the bird problem but... I re-baited my trap with fresh bait but haven't caught the culprit as yet. Squirrel? Chipmunk? Anyway, the mystery invader has been digging...leaving gaping holes in my garden. Not a good thing. I'd like to catch it before I attempt replanting for a third time.
