Help.  I've got a young Yellow Transparent apple that has been trying to 
put out leaves for a month now and they keep getting eaten by something. 
I haven't seen anything eating it. We don't have animals that would 
browse it. No deer.  And it's not rabbits because there are actually 
more leaves at the bottom than at the top. I'm thinking grasshoppers but 
it's still cool here at 7000 ft and I haven't seen grasshopper activity.

Any ideas of what's doing it and how to combat it? The trees been 
putting out new attempts at leaves but can't keep that up forever.

Regards,

Jay
