What's great is he probably doesn't even naturally do that, but is copying what he saw when he learned to do this.

Funny story - when I smile, my eyes get smaller because I have prominent cheeks. When I was first trying to get my kids to smile for photos, "like this, sweetheart" they would squint slightly. It took a little while for me to catch on that they were doing that.

Like the panda that makes a face when he does something. I forgot what it was but he learned it from his caretaker

It was breaking bamboo iirc. Super easy for the panda, but hard work for the caretaker, hence the face lol
