Hey guys,

I looked around for a bit and didn't see anyone with quite the same issue. I think it is probably some sort of caterpillar but wanted some input.

I think it's damage from one of three critters but I'm not certain what you have there. I'm leaning toward Earwigs, they aren't all bad they sometimes work as predators of other garden pests but I've noticed they like to chew on new foliage on my fruit trees and a few other plants.

Colorado Potato Beetle
Cucumber Beetle

Look for the earwigs after dark and they'll be more obvious.
