Back to your thief, the bird, if that is what it was, had time to unwrap the roll before it made off with it, but not enough time to get back for the burger.
I think a bird is your culprit, it had the motive & the time. Unless you have foxes, but a fox would have taken the burger first I think.

So funny Art....some fat little birds where you live
Actually I was repotting a plant the other day I put it on the wall and went to get a trowel I got back just in time to see a sheep from the field over the wall finishing off munching my about to be repotted plant....cheeky thing!

Re: Oi, Who Nicked My Bread Roll?
I remember a few years ago on the allotment one of the ladies had her bag taken from atop a stool. Taken by a fox which may have wanted the cheese roll inside. It also contained her house keys and her tenancy agreement. Had to get new locks (she could get in), and the bag was found many months later deep in the wild life section of the site. Several people there do feed the foxes with sandwiches so it was probably only taking what it thought was theirs.But in Art’s case mayhaps a bird. I’d have been very disappointed.

That sheep was a bit cheeky munching your plant... but this is the beauty or the drawback of living in the country!
I hope you’re enjoying your new home and that you are feeling much better after your recent balance trouble.
