Woodpeckers!

Great-horned owls are useful for something important.
They are one of the few animals (I'm told) that will hunt, kill, and eat skunks.
People in our area badly need to put up nesting boxes big enough for those owls---2018 was a bad year for skunks dying on the roads and then stinking to high heaven for weeks afterwards.

I wonder if that's why they moved in close to you?
Prey capable of feeding a family of baby owls and yet still small enough for an adult owl to carry.

We have a whole herd of them!
If I knew a way to summon critters that would eat them along with the voles and moles, I'd do it.
