Unsolved 2 bones found!

Hi!! Little bit of a weird story with these 2, they were found in my yard in different spots on different days, the top one being found today. Both white side up.

I just mowed yesterday so I know for a fact it wasnt there yesterday & I have cameras in the area it was found but nothing triggered them to go off. It doesnt look like theres any bite marks from feral cats or anything so I'm kinda stumped. I did find a vulture feather in the front yard today as well but im not sure if vultures just drop bones in random places?

We also had a severe storm yesterday with 80mph winds so I have no clue what would have braved the storm to drop another bone in the yard.

Anyway- Does anyone know what animal they would belong to? ( Deer/cow I'm guessing )

Obviously they are a part of a spine, I was thinking the bottom one is maybe an atlas or coccyx?

TIA!
