Looks like Raccoon to me. You would be able to identify Bear because the odor is fetid.
we also have the odd fox or coyote trotting through our towns. Is it possible it is one of those?
We haven't moved into this house yet....I'm thinking raccoon is probably likely. Thanks for the input.
Here is a handy guide---there is no size reference on your photos, but I am pretty sure it is not bear---might be coyote though (or raccoon)

We have found bear scat in our yard twice in the past week, and one of our fish is missing:<(.
A couple of weeks ago, we found squirrel droppings in our bedroom. Yuck. This was in Ulster County, NY.
I saw a family of racoons near Cumberland & Rynda the other night, was this anywhere near there? I also just saw one of the babies dead on S Ridgewood about an hour ago
Found in backyard....wondering if it was the bear
