What kind of possible culprits have you seen around? Could be anything from grasshoppers to rabbits to slugs to birds. Without knowing where you are located or even what zone you are in it is difficult to guess what possible pests you might have.

Oh, yeah sorry.. The culprits are the ones that I listed above. I saw 1 cucumber beetle and squised it, but could not find any more. I've seen the birds in there a bit and judging by the picture I shared, it shows more of a laceration than bug chew damage (I think at least).

As for zone, I am in South Eastern Michigan.

I caught a robin in the act of eating one of my zucchini. I'd consider them a prime suspect.

My problem is , whatever is attacking my squash , is leaving the blooms on the ground after seperating them from the plant. Any ideas?

Male blossoms fall off after they close and shrivel. Female blossoms usually stay attached to to fruit.

Are the squash themselves being damaged, or is it just a question of the blossoms falling off? What indicates they are being attacked?

I found it was snails/slugs. Sprinkled salt and snail killer.
