Just looked onto the middle of the garden, before it got dark, there was a large lump of what looks like a clod of dry earth on the grass, which must have fallen from the sky! I will have a good look at it tomorrow, but what could it be? It isn’t heavy, but dark brown with bits in…. Should I get it tested somewhere? Spooky ….

Moss, mud, seeds and stems.
I think Tilly2 has it. It's been dislodged by a bird looking for something to eat.
I've see birds doing the same with pieces of moss.

I think Tilly is right, ,doesn’t look neat enough for a nest. Thanks all!
Two options not yet covered :-

1. Prank by smurfchops's neighbour or other person
2. Hoax by smurfchops

[Just joking]
A bird has probably dropped it whilst flying over your garden.

Why would a bird want a clump of earth ??

It didn't. That's why it dumped it. Doh!
See what it tastes like.
Looks like a piece of bark dislodged from a tree. Any old trees nearby ?
