Description I saw this guy from afar and it wasn't long to he moved towards me. It eventually came as close a 2m (too close to photograph) My heart was beating really fast and I was scared to breath. Another fantastic encounter with nature

His facial expression is likely "Well, do you take photo? Now, can I move?"

Lol! No problem, and thank you too
But rain... is beautiful... Maybe it rained when you were there because the raindrops liked you

actually I was so hot I was thankful for the shower . It was 40 degrees. Maybe I smelled too much and it wanted to clean me lol

Lol! I can imagine how refreshing that shower was. Haha I'm sure you smelled fine the raindrops probably saw that you were in need of some refreshing and went to give you that!
