Believe you are talking about burrowing owls. My Dad had them on a vacant lot next to him in Fort Myers. He put up cross stakes for them to perch on. They dig holes in the ground and live in them. Very cool to watch them, but heartbreaking when hard rains came as many times the young would drown when the holes got washed out. My Dad used to put so many stakes out it looked like a cemetery! In Ft. Myers, people could not build on lots that had these owls living there.
