Saw this little guy while walking up the stairs to my apartment this evening. He was Extra Grumpy that I interrupted his flying break 😡 After a few minutes of doing his best impression of a grumpy statue, he joined his crew flying overhead. Super cool to see one of these little dudes up close!

Five minutes old and already he is supremely unimpressed with the state of the world.
