We've seen armadillos in our yard during the middle of the day, which was unheard of back in Texas. They're usually nocturnal. These seemed to be juveniles, since there were three of them.
Armadillos make little mounds just like you describe, every time they dig up a worm, which is their main food source.
They also like to dig giant tunnels under a house foundation, for some unknown reason. So if you see the little mounds, keep an eye on your foundation.
