I decided to check the nest box where the the red-headed woodpeckers nested and it was empty. So I guess both of the young fledged.
I was continuing to catch a juvenile red-headed woodpecker in my moth traps so I left them open during the day and I only closed them at night and I haven't been catching one. But I did catch a red-headed woodpecker at least five times and decided enough was enough.
My elderberry is a ripe and the Eastern kingbird family is enjoying them.
