Have had that happen to me many a time. Crows are smart little bastages. I put out some old hoses around my corn to make it look like there are snakes in the patch. Need to move them around every other day or so or they'll learn that, too. If you are really mad at em you can purchase some stuff called "flash tape" from johnnys that you string over your crops. It will keep them off corn, melons, etc.

Deer eat gourd plants and green gourds. I found that out last year. They didn’t destroy them but they did pick around on them. I don’t know if any of you have ever planted gourds, but the vines stink. Bad smell stink. If deer will eat that, they’ll eat anything

It isn't necessary to see a good tackle...you can hear it.

Here is an update on my garden . After hearing everyones comments on what the deer would eat , i was not very optimistic of any success. We planted our garden right along the edge of the woods ( unhunted land with a good deer population about 75 yards from the house . So here is what we planed and what worked. We applied a home made deer repellant twice over the season that we made going by Bob villas deer repellant recipe.

Pickelimg cucumbers. - no leaves or dukes eaten by deer
Straight eight cucumbers. “.
Armenian cucumbers. “
Squash. “
Okra. “. Seven feet tall and many okra harvested
Zucchinni. “
Potatoes “
Tomato No leave eating, found one large tomatoe on ground with teeth marks, maybe deer
Pumpkin. “
Watermelon. “
Tobasco. Pepper. 2-3 plants half eaten out of 12
Banana pepper. 4-5 plants half eaten out of 12
Bell pepper 2-3 plants half eaten out of 12
Jalapeño 6 out of 12 eaten

I’m puzzled why they didn’t eat more, but very pleased that they didnt.
