I was thinking bunny or deer! I have had a crop of peas mown down in a day and a night by deer that looked like it was mowed with a reel type greens mower when they left it! They often start out nibbling outer leaves and shoots, then when they realize how good it is and they get comfortable there, they gobble it down! Rabbits can do a very similar mode of attack. I had them wipe out a large commercial planting I did at a office bldg. one year of pansies. At first we saw nibbling then it became a plague of flower eating varmints!Sounds like it could be a bunny. They will strip the bottom leaves where they can reach, and sometimes bite the stem. One bunny wiped out two rows of peas last spring, then came back toward the end of bean season and finished mine off for me. It ignored every other vegetable in my garden, only wanted peas and beans. A two-foot high chicken wire fence around them will do the trick if you do in fact have a bunny visitor.
I forgot about my fat wood chuck! He liked the squash and melons so much he left most the other stuff alone this past summer.Rabbit, deer, maybe a woodchuck. Very frustrating, I know!
