I have a bunch of Black Eyed Susan flowers in my yard, and notice all the flower buds appear to have been bitten off. I was wondering if anyone knows what is going on..?

So many possibilities!!!! Squirrels? They ate mine - roots and all this winter. I have also observed them eating my flowers. Everything from daisies, susans, and even camellias among others. Even deer will eat flowers. The list of deer resistant plants is just that. They will eat anything.

Critters are dining on them... spray with Liquid Fence or the like.
