It was 33 degrees, the cold does not seem to bother him as long as he finds a sunny spot. It was cloudy that day so he was out just long enough to eat, won't miss a meal. Thats tomato on his face.

no, they don't. You have to keep them warm in an enclosure if outside.

You should have taken MORE pictures. It's not often we get to see this moment.
