Of all my tomatoes, most of the blossoms on my 5' tall San Marzano's have disappeared, therefore not producing much fruit. My husband thinks something is causing the blossoms to "fall off", I say something is eating them.

Thoughts?

I'm also having something eating my tomatoes, appears to be birds. But could also be other 4 legged critters! Trying to grow a garden out here is almost impossible!

I know birds will snip leaves during nest building times but don't know why they'd just go for a bloom. Mice of course will eat anything but the blooms would be hard to reach above ground level. So my first assumption is always insects of some kind.

This, of course, assuming it isn't just plain old Blossom Drop.
