Just found it in the backyard and I'm fairly certain it fell out of a tree. It's not a squirrel, so I'm thinking it was some critter that got snatched by an owl or hawk.

Any ideas? Maybe a mole?

Kinda hard to tell without a size comparison.

Could it be a bird?

It's about 4" long.

Looks like something has been chewing on it.

Have any shots of the teeth?

Eye sockets don't look properly formed. Maybe a defective baby that got eaten?

A lot of it's gone. It's been heavily chewed on.

Hard to tell from what's left.

I don't know much about bone aging of whatever type of animal this is, but if it's anything like in humans, this is older than a little baby. The anterior fontanelle is closed, which happens at about 2 years of age in humans.
