Any idea to what this could be?

Yep. Squirrels or chipmunks. Have had this happen here before. Remedy: Set a couple of Victor mouse traps in each pot. Don't bait the traps with anything, though. Just set the traps on opposite sides of the plants. It's real comical to see squirrels and those chipmunks performing gymnastic flips out of and away from those potted plants when they spring the traps. They finally get the message and leave your potted plants alone. Don't worry about catchin the squirrel in the trap. If he does get caught, he's plenty big enough and strong enough to free himself without any assistance. Very funny to watch, too!
