Going to the bakkal

A late morning quick (after-class-and-before-meeting) walk to the nearest Bakkal (= corner shop, mini market) in the hamlet adjacent to the school campus for a few essentials as I often do of late. I only had my phone with me on this very cold day, but just had to snap this truly magnificent (and enormous) animal who watched my every move - approach and departure both coming and going to the shop - in a totally focussed yet decidely detached and apparently disinterested study of my every move. He never moved and never made a sound. Didn't need to.
