    Pigeons - Google "pigeon crop damage" and you'll see loads of pics of brassicas damaged like yours.

        And I haven't seen any chipmunks round here except at the pet shop.

        JDweeler - what is your location? Looking back through your posts it appears it might be North Carolina USA, which probably explains why posters on this .co.uk forum don't know about chipmunks.
