Predator and Vandals

It appears as though there is a vandal on the loose. I am sure someone of the furry nature. Two nights ago someone or something bent over my shepherds hook holding the wild bird feeder and hummingbird feeder and in the process broke the hummingbird feeder. We know that deer have been visiting our bird feeder after dark for almost nightly snacks. We caught them in the act and have them on video as evidence. But I am not sure they would have bent the hook compltely to the ground. Maybe a bear? Guess we have to take up surveillance again. Something else has also been preying on my newly planted flower gardens. I don't mind a little eaten birdseed. But my beatiful freshly planted hostas and flowers are another story! Whatever it was nibbled some flower tops and chomped all the hostas down to little stubs and even uprooted one!
