Thank you guys, he's not really spooky, he doesn't go to far if he's had enough posing, although his expression kind of sums up his mood I think!

Here he is again when I first came up to him, he was looking into the waning sun, contemplating his past or future, or maybe just that grouse he had for breakfast!
