Mostly in my backyard, there are a lot of same poops which I haven't seen before. Do you know which animal they belong? I have plants and flowers and I'm a little bit concerned... Thank you! :)

    Those are worm casts - Wiki gives examples of them on a beach, but they're also very common on lawns, particularly at this time of year.  Allow them to dry and brush/rake them away before mowing the lawn to avoid bare patches.

    Difficult to judge the size but those look very much like worm casts to me.  They can be quite large from a large earthworm.

    A trowel in the hand is worth a thousand lost under a bush.

    Thank you so much for the answers and welcome message! :) And for the size of the poops, they are big like the size of a hand mostly...
