Thank you! I plan on closing the door to the coop and putting rocks all around the base of the coop so he can not dig in. Just ordered this off amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B002ISVJL6 and hope to get it installed Tuesday. It should alert me if something is outside the coop. No dog :(
Motion detection with cameras tends to produce a lot of false positives. I don't know about Blue Iris that the other poster mentioned though, but maybe it is better at it.
But another thing to consider are just motion detectors. Have them aimed at your yard properly positioned/adjusted to ignore the passer-bys. They can simply trigger a chime, something along the lines of: http://www.amazon.com/Chamberlain-CWA2000-Wireless-Motion-System/dp/B002ISVJL6
Or more sophisticated system (like a full-blown alarm system) can send you email/text notifications in addition to chiming.
It is possible to train your drivers to hide your stuff on your porch if you have a porch where that's possible. We do it by having our "second line" address be "Please hide package on porch. Theft issues."... mostly they do.
But yeah... not an easy problem to solve in general.
However, this device is extremely useful for solving the "I didn't hear the delivery driver" problem.
I use one of these and it works pretty good. I painted it to blend in with my fence where it's mounted, and it's barely noticeable.

Aside from a unit that is made more for interior doors: https://www.surveillance-video.com/security-e-931cs22rrcq.html/
Could also place tape over the PIR sensor window to limit it's visible area. Also could get a unit that has a very narrow width by design: http://www.amazon.com/Chamberlain-CWA2000-Wireless-Motion-System/dp/B002ISVJL6/ref=pd_bxgy_60_img_3?ie=UTF8&refRID=05CKY1E9WNH8DM4QNY01
