This was supposed to be 3 HDR images stitched together, using ProHDR and Autostitch apps, of Pixel staring across the gardens, however one of the apps is stripping all of the EXIF data out of the resultant image including the date.

So he has a lot to contend with for control of his domain. This is why he is intent on challenging any intruder, following them home and beating them up in their own kitchen.
