    fantastic! Looks like that big bad wolf is doing some math in his head about you being lunch and if he can get to you quick enough to warrant the effort of running. I’m guessing he figured you were too far. The 3 little pigs and little red riding hood had problems with this guy.

  • Visual Inspi... replied

    Does seem that way doesn’t it Jerame.. I was thinking, how fast can I run about the time I saw him look my way :0
