A Season Comes to a Close

The majority of this week's photographs cover the end of the basketball season for the men and women's teams at Saint Francis University.

In my pursuit to get photographs of all of the birds around here, I study how they act at certain times. Nine times out of ten, if a Red-bellied Woodpecker holds a piece of suet in his mouth like this it means that he is about to leave the feeder.
