Definitely deer is what I say, too. They really wander around on these well lit full moon nights. I was tired when I turned on the water at the spigot but forgot to turn on the device for the water cannons that guard my yard, and they not only got some buds, but also 4 prime tomatoes that were just right for a grand BLT tomorrow. It's interesting that they bypass seedpods until later when they are just ready for harvest. Nasty creatures!
