Just an FYI we do have fishers in Maryland.  Trappers are allowed to trap one per season.

Interesting. According to BNA, raccoons also predate adult RSHA, and 
it describes as "potential predators" Red-tails, Peregrines, fishers, 
and martens (don't think the latter two occur this far south though). 
Not sure if a mammal would leave such a neat pile of feathers though.

Good birding!
