What a cutie! I have never seen one standing like that.
They used to get in our fenced back yard, and oh my, if we let the terrier out at night, what a ruckus until either we finally managed to corral the pup, or the ‘dillo found a quick exit strategy.
Sure do love life in the south :)
Prayers for Japan.

I too have never seen them stand like that. Also unusual to see them in the daylight.
I think what happened was the wind was blowing toward me and he did not smell me. I just stood there and he eventually got very close.
I could tell, every now and then that he got a whiff of me as he would alert. When he was around 20 feet away, I made a noise by walking on some dried leaves. He immediately sat up and I was fortunate to have the camera pointed at him.
At times he got right under my feet but that is actually not a good position to photograph them.
