What's eating my morning glory?

This is my 1st year growing MG and I did them via the ws method (which I totally love and will do again).

Anyway, something has been eating my MG. The flower buds are still there but the leaves are chomped right off. Looks like they were cut off - no leaves on the ground. Last night I lost 3 inches of vine and leaves as well as leaves off of 3 other vines.

What gives?

We have deer, squirrels, a gohper (although he has not been seen in the front yard which is where the MG are) and chimpunks (again, never spotted in the front yard).

This is driving me nuts. After work I am heading out to buy some netting to put over the trellis w/ the MG. Oh, and to put over a few rose bushes b/c the same thing is happening to their blooms (the roses are a good 40' from the mg).

Thanks!

Sara
