You say you do not see anything in daylight, must be happening after hours. Most likely field rats or voles or other small rodents. You will not see them in daylight as they stay hidden from predators. Look closely at a few of your pulled- up corn seedlings. If it was bird damage, the tiny plant will have a couple of pinch marks slanting diagonally downward where the bird clamped its beak on it to pull it from the ground . Rodent damage does not show the pinch marks, just severed/chewed from the seed and the small cone shaped hole with a little loose soil around it. Birds will peck at and move some soil but they always pull with their beak ,hence the marks on the seedling. For those of us that have bird (crow, pheasant, crane, turkey , etc. ) damage every year, there is a bird repellent product that hopefully will be on the market nationwide in a couple of years. Called Avipel. Info from the makers website shows impressive photos of treated / untreated areas.
