Are squirrels capable of literally removing a plant from it's pot without leaving evidence of it ever being there? I had a blueberry plant disappear from my covered deck yesterday with no neighbors to blame.

I dont think so. Animals just eat the food. If they tip over the planter they would leaves the dirt all over the place. I think a human took it.
Sounds like an innocent squirrel may be about to get blamed for the works of a "two-legged" thief.
The pot was on my covered deck about 5 feet from my back door and to see the plant from a distance would have been impossible. I have had solar lights taken in the past and last year some one dug up a beautiful hostas on the east side of the house.
I am in the city without deer but we have hawks, gulls, occasional owls, who knows? Thanks for the ideas.
you know what, the same exact thing happened to me last year with 2 tomato plants I had. It was such a surgical job that I was convinced some neighbor came with a trowel and ran off with the plants! People I've since spoken with say that squirrels and other animals are capable of doing that
your guesss is as good as mine
if i have a garden again i may install CCTV to find out for sure
Probably not a squirrel, but it could have been another animal. If it was a small plant, they may have taken it for nesting material.
