I noticed, here, yesterday a few little diggy holes in the grass and there are quite a few foxes around here so i think it's them. Your holes look very similar

Maybe Tonka burried something and the fox got a whif. Try putting some of Tonka's poo down the hole, it may put it off.

Foxes bury food and return to it, before now i've found mouldy part loaves of bread aswell as bird suet and fatballs !
My neighbour 2 doors up also found a wrapped bag of sliced (mouldy) bread buried in her garden.

There's been a marked decrease though since this region had its new refuse collections installed and wheelie bins provided - crows, magpies, seagulls and foxes are no longer spreading rubbish far and wide all over the place.

Not clover, dandelions, buttercups, speedwell - GRASS! ;D That's not badger damage, I know all too well what that looks like. I think 'fox' too.
