I reckon he was hoping you'd extend a finger of friendship when he gave you that smile in #1...

When it didn't come, he was disappointed. ;)

Great shots Brian

He does look happy. He must like the photographer!

Nice. I reckon he's a "she". It's a common darter, and judging by the dark leg stripes she's been around a while. A male that old would be showing more red around the nose.
