You have my sympathies. I had the EXACT same thing happen (dwarf peach,
1st year of fruit wiped out over night). It was quite the "WTF?"
moment, walking up to the bare tree.

Since then I've also had to deal with birds and use a net - brought to
the trunk and tied. Squirrels & chipmunks could chew through, but don't.

AHA! I've heard about those nets. I'll have to look into getting one.
Thanks for the tip.
