Surely this is an owl pellet - in general, owls are unable to digest the fur, bones and teeth of their prey, which they usually swallow whole. The indigestible parts are regurgitated (coughed up through the beak) in the form of an owl pellet.
Owl droppings are usually watery, mainly white and can be a sign of a regular roost site.
Thanks for that 
Of course I now realise it is a pellet, but only ever having seen one on TV I jumped to the wrong conclusion. Good macro on the P900
Wife and I are pretty sure an owl lands on our roof most nights, we hear a thud and then a pitter patter of feet(?) The finding of the pellet adds a bit more to the puzzle of just what it is.
