Looking at his sides I would say that he has "consumed" something nice and is happy with the world. Probably the smile means : "next time a portion off you". Great image, EJ, Just don't get too close!
P.S. There is no "negative space" left in his tummy at the moment :)

Certainly does look happy EJ, I'm glad it wasn't because he'd just spied lunch. You're one intrepid photographer even getting THIS close. I hope it was a long zoom! He's nicely sharp and in focus with just a little blur in the background to make him stand out, so well done with the dof.
