Howdy, dazzle!

Hmmm... Silly question. Could it be a bird poopie?

Inquiring minds... you know.....

Funny, Jacque, because I was thinking the same thing. I see 'em on my peas because the birds sometimes perch on the top of the trellis!

--Riff.

(Chuckling!!!!)
Ah, no. I ran my finger over it and it's definitely not something on the leaf's surface. But, It would be mighty embarrassing if it were and I thought it was a pest! It's underneath that top layer of the leaf but doesn't show up on the under side.

Not sure what

That was wierd...

Not sure what the actual critter causing the injury was, but htere is a good chance its stillinside the gall on the surface of the leaf feeding on the deformed growth. Remove any impacted leaves and dispose of in the garbage or (preferably) by burning or flushing it.

Thanks Ray, I'll go out and remove those leaves.
I'm certain it's something that has burrowed it's way in...I can see the opening, but your right, it may not have come out and is still in there, though I can not see anything.

I think the burrows are from a leaf miner. Anyone with information about this pest?

Yes, it must be a leaf miner. I found a picture of exactly what I see on my pepper plant.
